Please check our "GRASS GIS docker matrix" at
https://github.com/OSGeo/grass/tree/master/docker

You'll see from that (new) list of base docker images, versions and
included libraries that the Alpine image is way smaller than the
others.
Maybe a choice for you - we switched to Alpine for all our
cloud/docker related activities (that's basically why this image is
there :-).

HTH,
Markus
