This repo contains a simple proxy for serving concealed metadata to container workloads running in kubernetes/kubernetes on a GCE VM.
This proxy has been benchmarked at requiring no more than 25Mi memory. With such a constraint and effectively no cpu constraint, it can serve 200 concurrent requests indefinitely at around 700 qps:
$ kubectl describe pod metadata-proxy-v0.1-xxxxx
[...]
Containers:
metadata-proxy:
[...]
Limits:
cpu: 500m
memory: 25Mi
Requests:
cpu: 500m
memory: 25Mi
[...]

Under cpu constraint, the qps goes down to about 50, but the pod serves all requests successfully:
$ kubectl describe pod metadata-proxy-v0.1-xxxxx

Above 200 concurrent requests, it starts resetting connections, but does not go above 25MiB memory.
