A gate run on a box at load ~14 failed five times over, and every failure read "could not create a container" — searxng:start, package.start btcpay-server, 3x electrumx — never a lifecycle fault. That sent two separate sessions hunting a phantom host-wide cgroup failure. It was contention. Measured on the 4-core node: at load ~14 podman runs 9-16 processes deep and healthchecks time out 3-8/min; at load ~3.7, podman ~1 and zero timeouts. Restoring four containers whose HealthTimeout equals their HealthInterval, unchanged, made the box *better* once load fell — so the config is a latent hazard, not the cause here. Preflight now checks, once, before iteration 1: - aardvark-dns is singular (duplicates desync name resolution) - load1 is under nproc+1, waiting up to 15 min for a spike to pass - podman can actually create a container, 3/3 Deliberately NOT checked: the count of "Failed to create container" in the journal. Those lines come from healthcheck exec churn and post-boot settling, never reach 0 on a busy node, and gating on them would block the gate forever. The probe proves creation positively instead. Escape hatches: ARCHY_PREFLIGHT=0, ARCHY_MAX_LOAD, ARCHY_PREFLIGHT_SECS. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 5 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>
