Podman running container limits (programming.dev)

I was wondering, Do you know of a limit on how many rootless conrainers can one run on a linux host?

Running fedora server, I have resources but once I pass about 15 containers podman starts to hang and crash.

I then need to manually delete the storage folder under ~./local/share/... for podman to work again.

It might be related to user ns keep-id flag.

My config is nothing special. Running all containers as user 1000 via qadlets. Sporadically, I get:

I have enugh RAM and CPU and Disk to spare....

when this error happens, I cant run any podman commands without a core dump. i.e I cant podman images podman ps and so on... The only solution is to delete the storage folder manually, pull all the images again. and it's back to normal.
