[x] I have tried with the latest version of Docker Desktop
[ ] I have tried disabling enabled experimental features
[x] I have uploaded Diagnostics
Diagnostics ID: 6063891E-4CA0-4142-A4B5-098E464409C6/20230207024339

Actual behavior

Docker takes more and more ram each time you build

Expected behavior

Docker to not take all the ram

Information

Windows Version: Windows 10 latest version fully up to date
Docker Desktop Version: Latest build
WSL2 or Hyper-V backend? WSL2
Are you running inside a virtualized Windows e.g. on a cloud server or a VM: Baremetal

Steps to reproduce the behavior

Build an image in WSL2 with docker on Windows and watch the memory never come back
Only solution is to fully shut off docker and use the command wsl --shutdown to make things work like they should

I am going to install docker on WSL2 for the time being as I cannot keep fighting this ram :(

Same problem as everyone in this thread https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/8725
