Building docker image results in double size

So, I was trying to make a minimal image by using the multi stage build process and all worked out but the image size seems wrong.

docker history output of the final image

IMAGE                                                                     CREATED             CREATED BY                                                                                                                      SIZE                COMMENT

I was expecting a few bytes more in the adduser step but not 42.1MB plus as if i did the copy step two times

You are changing all the files you copied in the container the step before. For Docker those are totally new files and so you get double the size you expected.

Try using COPY --chown=cgrates:cgrates . /cgrates/cgr-engine to change the owner while you copy the files to prevent that. Also you need to create the user before you can copy the files.
