Hi – I have a long outstanding PR to change buffer processing at ContainerPool https://github.com/apache/openwhisk/pull/4593 The background is that in cases where container scheduling fails, we should not immediately retry scheduling, but rather wait for a resource-affecting event to occur, and then retry. With the previous impl, we saw cases where scheduling would get into a tight loop and crash the invoker.
Please let me know if you have any concerns? Thanks Tyson
