<p>i m using kubernetes cluster for web app. But i m running into problem when pods start scale. 
More pods -> slower app (every click is longer).
From my point of view, there is problem with caches. I m trying solve it, by volume or persistent volume, which all pods share together. But it has still same output, it seems like every pod want to create new cache. </p>

<p>Is there any solution other to redesign code ?</p>

<p>For cache issues have you considered :</p>

<ul>
<li><p>Ingress controllers like nginx to cache static content and deliver from it straight? <a href="https://medium.com/@vdboor/using-nginx-ingress-as-a-static-cache-91bc27be04a1" rel="nofollow noreferrer">https://medium.com/@vdboor/using-nginx-ingress-as-a-static-cache-91bc27be04a1</a></p></li>
<li><p>CDN may be if the cache is not private or dynamic in nature ?</p></li>
</ul>

<p>With increasing pods, increasing times to me doesn't sound like its a cache issue or not the cache alone. The webserver is playing a big part or the load balancer an/or the firewall sitting in the front is capping the bandwidth. Round trip from browser to pod back to browser should be same if you have 1 or 100 pods provided there is no network latency. In your case an increase traffic is slowing the connection speed. I have had similar issues with the network capping bandwidth in front of the pods. </p>
