debugging boot space utilization ?

I have created Vertex AI Workbench Instance n2-standard-2 (2 vCPUs, 8 GB RAM) .Running a sample ml model on basic titanic dataset . creating dockers within the jupyter notebook  & executing them with in jupyter instance  notebook instance for testing . The instance is just 2 days old . Just curious to understand how 100 GB space boot space is finished in 2 days for Titanic Dataset 😂
Below is the error
pip._vendor.urllib3.exceptions.ProtocolError: ("Connection broken: OSError(28, 'No space left on device')", OSError(28, 'No space left on device'))

I was able to debug why boot disk space was utilized 100%. After updating the scripts in the docker  i was re-building  docker image with same image name/tag which created multiple docker images with different image id's .The boot space got occupied due to duplicate docker images.With  docker commands ,retrieved list of unused docker images & later deleted them eventually free up boot disk space. Commands like "docker system df"   to see Docker disk usage details  were  useful  .
