Surely the API Response Time for the 99th percentile should be larger than that of the 90th? Percentile API Response Time Scheduling Delay 50th 150ms 230ms 90th 250ms 400ms 99th 200ms 400ms

This gives me the confidence in it that a 1.0 release should have. The dangers of content marketing.

Oops, there was a copy & paste error – sorry about that! Updated with correct figures.

The article says the test involved 1000 nodes running 50 containers each, but the conclusion only talks about "no difference between 1st and 30000th container". So we can assume things between 30k and 50k containers didn't go as smoothly? Or did I miss something?

Possibly a copy error? The article says 30 containers on each node in the specs but 50 in the text.
