One of the worst, bazooka in knife fight moment was when I interviewed for a company that was a medium scale direct to consumer streaming service that was built some custom resource to create one pod per user, their worst case scenario was where they would have around 1000 concurrent users.

I worked in a Python web-scraping team doing 3 million requests per day. Their solution to manage concurrency was also one pod per crawl, each with its own DB connection. It really struck me as crazy that everyone thought this was a good idea.
