Hi all,
I am able  to run load test via k6 operator for smaller loads ie rps however when i try to run for larger rps and high number of parallelism i see failures in load test jobs with error
Job has reached the specified backoff limit
Here are the specs I am putting in my k6 operator :
 resources:
                limits:
                  cpu: 1000m
                  memory: 4096Mi
                requests:
                  cpu: 500m
                  memory: 1024Mi  
and my load test scenarios :
export const options = {
  scenarios: {
    ramping_arrival_rate: {
      executor: 'ramping-arrival-rate',
      startRate: 20, // Start with 10 iterations/second
      timeUnit: '1s', // RPS will be calculated per second
      preAllocatedVUs: 10000, // Preallocate 50 VUs
      stages: [
        { target: 100, duration: '2m' },   // Ramp up to 500 RPS in 3 minutes
        { target: 1000, duration: '4m' },  // Ramp up to 1000 RPS in the next 2 minutes
        { target: 3000, duration: '3m' },  // Ramp up to 1500 RPS in the next 2 minutes
        { target: 0, duration: '1m' },     // Ramp down to 0 RPS over 2 minutes
      ],
    },
  },
};```
i try to run these tests on 10 runners 
I get the following response  when i try this command
**kubectl describe job load-test-3 -n argo**

can any one tell me what could be possible reason ? also  one tihng i noticed is that i see an extra pod load-test-starter when everything works fine but not when the load-job- pods fails
