Alpine Linux looks great. Unfortunately there is an outstanding issue (https://github.com/gliderlabs/docker-alpine/issues/8 https://github.com/gliderlabs/docker-alpine/issues/8) with its DNS implementation that makes it tough to use in Kubernetes or similar environment that uses DNS for service discovery. It does look like a fix is on the way though.
