Docker - Extracting/Pull very slow

Question

I'm trying out docker on Windows 10 Bash on Ubuntu (20.04). The Extracting is taking so much time even for 100Bytes of data.

Any idea how I can speed up Extracting and Pull? I'm unable to use Docker Desktop as I want to run other programs on Windows which consumes more memory.

root@DESKTOP-12341TV:/mnt/c/Users/username/manageiq_old/manageiq# docker build -t manageiq_lasker .
Sending build context to Docker daemon  44.56MB
Step 1/16 : ARG IMAGE_REF=latest
Step 2/16 : FROM manageiq/manageiq:latest-lasker
