An approach is provided in which an information handling system creates a set of first containers from a container image that each includes a set of shareable files. The information handling system creates a second container from the container image that is devoid of the set of shared files and includes a pointer that points to a selected one of the first containers. In turn, the second container mounts to the first container and utilizes the shared files included the first container.
