<p>I'm new to kubernetes. I'm just wondering is there any downside if i'm set the value for kubernetes container resource requests and limits as max as possible like this?</p>
<pre><code>resources:
   limits:
     cpu: '3'
     memory: 1Gi
   requests:
     cpu: '2'
     memory: 256Mi
</code></pre>

ant
<p>You should set <code>requests</code> to the minimum values your pod needs and <code>limits</code> to the max you allow it to use. It helps Kubernetes to schedule pods properly.</p>
<p>If the <code>requests</code> value is too high, then Kubernetes may not have any node that fulfills these requirements and your pod may not run at all.</p>
