Exam Professional-Cloud-Developer Topic 14 Question 71 Discussion

Actual exam question for Google's Professional-Cloud-Developer exam
Question #: 71
Topic #: 14
You are configuring a continuous integration pipeline using Cloud Build to automate the deployment of new container images to Google Kubernetes Engine (GKE). The pipeline builds the application from its source code, runs unit and integration tests in separate steps, and pushes the container to Container Registry. The application runs on a Python web server.
The Dockerfile is as follows:
FROM python:3.7-alpine -
COPY . /app -
WORKDIR /app -
RUN pip install -r requirements.txt
CMD [ "gunicorn", "-w 4", "main:app" ]
You notice that Cloud Build runs are taking longer than expected to complete. You want to decrease the build time. What should you do? (Choose two.)

https://cloud.google.com/build/docs/optimize-builds/increase-vcpu-for-builds By default, Cloud Build runs your builds on a standard virtual machine (VM). In addition to the standard VM, Cloud Build provides several high-CPU VM types to run builds. To increase the speed of your build, select a machine with a higher vCPU to run builds. Keep in mind that although selecting a high vCPU machine increases your build speed, it may also increase the startup time of your build as Cloud Build only starts non-standard machines on demand.
https://cloud.google.com/build/docs/optimize-builds/speeding-up-builds#using_a_cached_docker_image The easiest way to increase the speed of your Docker image build is by specifying a cached image that can be used for subsequent builds. You can specify the cached image by adding the --cache-from argument in your build config file, which will instruct Docker to build using that image as a cache source.
