[lxc-users] Experience with large number of LXC/LXD containers

[Benoit GEORGELIN - Association Web4all]

Hi lxc-users , 

I would like to know if you have any experience with a large number of LXC/LXD containers ? 
In term of performance, stability and limitation . 

I'm wondering for exemple, if having 100 containers behave the same of having 1.000 or 10.000 with the same configuration to avoid to talk about container usage. 

I have been looking around for a couple of days to found any user/admin feedback experience but i'm not able to find large deployments 

Is there any ressources limits or any maximum number that can be deployed on the same node ? 
Beside physical performance of the node, is there any specific behavior that a large number of LXC/LXD containers can experience ? I'm not aware of any test or limits that can occurs beside number of process. But I'm sure from LXC/LXD side it might have some technical contraints ? 
Maybe on namespace availability , or any other technical layer used by LXC/LXD 

I will be interested to here from your experience or if you have any links/books/story about this large deployments 

Thanks 

Cordialement, 

Benoît G
