Spinning up a new Kubernetes pod for every single job run is a very expensive and wasteful operation, starting at least in the order of seconds (usually more) vs just milliseconds for a new process in an already hot environment.

I don’t doubt that the resource management side of k8s would make it dicey at a certain volume of these things running, though, especially if they eat a lot of compute.
