i'm not sure that's a fair statement.  ray will consume as much as you
let it.  if you choke down a cgroup, ray (even though it can detect
the box has more) wont be able to use more then the cgroup says.  also
you can choke ray down when you start it by specifying how much
cpu/mem/gpu resources it can use

yes, its true kuberay probably is the right solution and probably the
best supported, but you have to be willing to buy into that entire
ecosystem
