Plan for updates on a slow broadband connection #51

Calculate how long roughly it would take for the docker images to be downloaded over a slowish broadband connection.

UK average adsl is 4mbps so calculate the rough time it would take for the docker images over this.

This equates to ~ 30 minutes potentially. Will have to try and artifically bottleneck and test this out if not maybe shave a few MB off the containers where possible.

Docker images have been cut down significantly.

Download size for packet forwarder: 45MB > 34MB Download Size for Controller: 150MB >77MB.

Overall saving 84MB.

Approx download time on 1Mbps connection: 15 Minutes. On average ADSL 4 Minutes.
