 - `config` is used to specify the configuration of the containers that will be started off the built image in Docker. The available options are listed in the [Docker Image Specification v1.2.0](https://github.com/moby/moby/blob/master/image/spec/v1.2.md#image-json-field-descriptions).
 
+- `diskSize` is used to specify the disk size of the VM used to build the image in megabytes. By default it's 1024 MiB.

 After the new layer has been created, its closure (to which `contents`, `config` and `runAsRoot` contribute) will be copied in the layer itself. Only new dependencies that are not already in the existing layers will be copied.
 
 At the end of the process, only one new single layer will be produced and added to the resulting image.
