The image size of the quickstart pipeline (docs-gen/includes/quickstart/Dockerfile) is getting quite large and subsequent updates to the TFX version increase the size:
1.12 -> 1.13 increased it to 9GB
1.13 -> 1.15 increases it to 11.4GB
It is possible to just install the tfx python package in a slim linux base image, which should reduce the size of the pipeline image and speed up build time.
