Changed

  • The pod is now Guaranteed QoS, so the panel is no longer among the first
    processes killed when the node runs out of memory. requests now equal limits for
    both containers, which moves oom_score_adj from 997 to -997.

    This came out of measuring 0.1.34's trigger instead of assuming it. MatrixCtrl was
    killed while holding 14 MB against a 512Mi limit: the kernel logged
    constraint=CONSTRAINT_NONE, global_oom, meaning the whole node was exhausted — by
    an unrelated 18 GB process — not the container. There was no memory problem to fix.
    What the log did show is that kubelet derives the kill order from the memory
    request, so a 128Mi request against a 512Mi limit put the admin panel near the
    front of the queue.

    It creates no memory; it changes who is killed instead. The reservation is about 2%
    of the node, and the request/limit gap was buying nothing at 81Mi steady state.

    Note that QoS is a pod property: both containers need requests == limits or
    the class stays Burstable.

  • Memory and CPU limits are unchanged. Lowering the 512Mi ceiling to match real
    usage was rejected — the peak during a Helm render has never been measured, and that
    would trade a rare collateral kill for a self-inflicted one.
