kubernetes container creation takes too long

Question

Using microk8s installation. After an image is pulled it takes addional tens of minutes to create a container:

light@siddhalok:~/camera_serv$ k describe pod lh-graphql-6db75544cf-j65wp

light@siddhalok:~/camera_serv$ k logs lh-graphql-6db75544cf-j65wp
Error from server (BadRequest): container "lh-graphql" in pod "lh-graphql-6db75544cf-j65wp" is waiting to start: ContainerCreating

The system works fine otherwise:

light@siddhalok:~$ cat /proc/meminfo
MemTotal:        2988196 kB
MemFree:          175132 kB
MemAvailable:    1697564 kB
