Description

Problem: Currently the tutorial site build takes 1h40m on a g3-8x instance. Reducing this time will allow the community to interact and help us improve documentation. Target: <30m

Solution: Public training data hardly changes. Include tutorial training data in the containers used to build the tutorial site and modify the makefiles and build scripts to check for the existence of this data prior to downloading data.

Impact: 15-20min saved

Research direction

Start by locating the container definitions, Makefiles, and build scripts used for the tutorial site, then trace where training data is downloaded. Update the container and build flow so existing data is detected before downloading; done means the tutorial build uses the included data and approaches the stated under-30-minute target.
