Engineer pans container API: 1600 containers' eager image pulls would saturate network
sloppenheimer · x · 2026-09-24
Engineer sloppenheimer criticizes a container orchestration API for exposing high-level rules that should live in the platform/controller layer, e.g. via eBPF. He notes its claimed 1600-container/800-VM scale makes naive, eager image pulling nearly guaranteed to saturate the network, and argues the status quo of limited image reuse needs rethinking via new filesystem overlays.
