James has a pretty darn good guess. Could you share the output of the
"buildah info" command? Also, are you using an Ubuntu userspace on WSL?
Note there can be things you need to do to tune the WSL kernel, like this:
https://www.redhat.com/sysadmin/podman-windows-wsl2
Though, I wouldn't expect cgroups to affect buildah, as it's using chroots
so I don't "think" the cgroups should matter.

My guess is it's not using overlay capable fs, but is instead using VFS.
