Your queue consumer should be awaiting the fetch/rpc and then returning success, otherwise it'd just be building up the queue over and over. Are you doing something weird like waitUntil in it and ignoring errors?

hmm, yea I don't think this is a container thing. Your worker log says cancelled, meaning the calling worker gave up on it.
Using a layer inbetween/Mastra Client is going to complicate getting the underlying error out, a quick google search shows there's a configurable timeout for Mastra which a default, worth looking into

Alexander•8/27/25, 1:26 PM

Another thing I've noticed (hesitant to call it an issue) but calling .getState() returns stale values if:
- in development I manually stop the docker container instance OR ctrl +c the dev server
- impact: when I try to call / fetch container next time, I check via .getState() which returns a stale value (whatever the state was before instance was manually stopped)

I would have thought that .getState() always returns a fresh state but without booting the container up / waiting for ports. Am I wrong?

I previously stored state flag (i.e. running / healthy / error) in DO KV storage using lifecycle hooks but ran into the same stale values issue.

Am I missing something?

sampotter•8/28/25, 2:47 AM

I've had this issue for a while. In my limited understanding from testing it looks like container lifecycles are tied to durable objects. If the durable object is evicted from memory, the container is killed also. I have never been able to keep a durable object alive for more than 180,000ms. It looks like that is some sort of hard limit on DOs.

Our solution in the interim is to make the container workload durable to restarts (which doesn't sound like it's possible for your workload). We also run a loop within the durable object to automatically awake it after it is evicted.

Hi, I modified my code to call container with a certain ID "constant-id-234", and modifed the max instances from 15 to 1. Ideally, I think all containers will sleep except "constant-id-234". But there is an container with ID "79dfd71efb78d86b9fcf0293eaac276e49008ad34f84bb2f1e52f9be170e33d6" is still keeping running now. And I cannot access the container via the new version code, an exception was throwed "Failed to start container: The maximum amount of containers allowed to run in the Durable Object namespace is the same to the amount of running Durable Object Containers, we won't be able to assign an instance to this Durable Object Container".

I'm attempting to understand the networking behavior for containers. Currently my container exposes a zero trust tunnel with a custom dns name tied to a cloudflare zone. Attempting to access the webserver running within the container is running very very slow (feels equivalent to dial up internet).

I've attempted to determine if it was just when accessing it via the cloudflare tunnel, however I'm noticing similar behavior when I fetch through the durable object to the container.

Is there an optimization or setting I need to get reasonable networking speed?

There aren't really any related settings, the bandwidth should be pretty good for most apps.

Are you seeing slow cold starts or the actual HTTP response being streamed slowly?

Specifically the HTTP response is slow for both cases of: performing a fetch to the container (I have a default port specified and it hits a basic python fast api which returns information about the environment) as well as hitting the container using the custom domain to return a web app (verified the web app is not the cause, this is simply just a very slow response as if it takes a long time to go from the zero trust tunnel back to the container origin server) then a delay before the bits come back, the actual processing within the container is pretty quick

Why isn't the container FAQ growing? Support, discord, plus all the other channels looks like there's enough uncertainity that perhaps should be updated every other day, so much to cover, so many questions unanswered..

does this guarantee the container behaves like a singleton, during rollouts it doesnt try to bring up a replacement first?

Aside from https://developers.cloudflare.com/containers/platform-details/#limits , do Containers have any other limits (like invocations per month, etc.) or are these bound to the calling worker? So could I direct all 10 M workers calls to a container without extra costs or is there something to be aware of?

S

Steps•9/4/25, 3:01 PM

For example, if I set the timeout to 10 minutes... will one call then cause that much execution time removed from the worker?

Ah, I found the pricing section.

I'd suggest to link that with the limits page.

Regarding the egress: If I have a container that justs ingests data and writes that to R2, but never returns something... that's no egress, right?

When you use Containers, incoming requests to your containers are handled by your Worker, and each container has its own Durable Object. You are billed for your usage of both Workers and Durable Objects.

Ok, if my worker calls my container and that container runs for 1 minute... will the worker be billed the 1 ms it takes to call the container or will both be billed 1m? For the worker it should be wall time and not CPU time, right?

Workers is CPU time, Durable Objects and Containers are wall time.

Hi Cloudflare team!

Quick question about Workers for Platforms + Containers integration:

Can user workers deployed via Workers for Platforms include Container bindings?

Specifically:
1. Can a user worker extend the Container class from @Cloudflare/containers?
2. Can user workers bind to containers in their wrangler.toml?
3. If yes, do container resource limits (40GB/20vCPU) apply per user worker or shared across the platform account?

Use case: Building a multi-tenant platform where each tenant needs their own containerized execution environment.

Currently testing but would love official clarification!

Thanks!
