Change the Containerfile (#30)

brahle · web-flow · commit 3f42f922999a · 2023-06-27T15:26:45.000+01:00
Alpine distribution of python is very slow when using `pip` to install the dependencies. For a `requirements.txt` file that includes `pandas` and `numpy`, it ran for about 25 minutes. According to [this](https://stackoverflow.com/a/60086958) stakoverflow answer, Alpine downloads the source file and compiles them from scratch, which is inefficient. Changing the source image to `-slim` drops the time for that step down to 1.5 minutes.
