Alpine Linux is too huge. Why do you bundle entire linux distribution if all you need is the single statically linked binary? Google's distroless repository can be a good starting point, not just for Rust but for other languages.

GoogleContainerTools/distroless/blob/main/examples/rust/Dockerfile

FROM rust:1.41.0 as build-env
WORKDIR /app
COPY . /app
RUN cargo build --release

FROM gcr.io/distroless/cc
COPY --from=build-env /app/target/release/hello-world-distroless /
CMD ["./hello-world-distroless"]
