[Starlingx-discuss] DockerHub rate limit issues

[Scott Little]

It was hitting many images, not just golang.  I just don't have any logs 
left from those failures.

I don't see the OSS mark on the golang images, so perhaps those images 
drove our quota down to zero. However once the quota hit zero, then any 
anonymous download of an image could trigger the download failure, 
including OSS ones. The strange part was that the OSS download failures 
are only seen within build containers.  The same image could be 
anonymously download on the containers host just fine.  Both container 
and host were being billed to the same IP address.
