Summary:Container images can be copied. For example, a computing device can segment a container image into at least two data chunks. The computing device can determine a reference count for a data chunk among the at least two data chunks. The computing device can determine that the reference count for the data chunk is below a threshold value. In response to determining that the reference count for the data chunk is below the threshold value, the computing device can prevent a destination device from being queried about the data chunk prior to transmitting the data chunk to the destination device.
