          # 2026-10-08: "80%" is a share of the node memory (memStress reached 4.4 GB), so the cgroup OOM killer took memStress
          # and the api process within a second: one restart per pod, no sustained pressure, no alert. 200MB stays under the
          # 256Mi limit and keeps the working set near 90% for the whole duration (ApiMemoryPressure fires after 2m).
