Description
Hi, even if images in the Dockerfile are available in local storage, buildit still load metadata from docker.io/library, which takes a lot of time:
[internal] load metadata for docker.io/library/xxx:latest
Is there a way to disable it?

Research direction

Trace how local image availability and remote metadata resolution interact; done means a documented or implemented way to avoid the remote request while preserving successful local builds.
