My ToDo app repo has a GitHub Action that runs npm run test for both frontend and backend using Docker Compose. It used to take 4 minutes and 48 seconds to run tests after building images, but by using buildx cache backends, it was shortened to 2 minutes and 18 seconds. The latency reduces by 2 minutes and 30 seconds, and the performance improvement is over 2x (see the related pull request). This article guides you simple steps you can add to benefit from caches.
