Really cool project!

Are there any downsides - for example performance or operational overhead - of using Constellation over vanilla K8s?

Thanks! There is some performance impact. How much depends on the workload. The impact comes from network, storage, and memory encryption. For most workloads the overhead should be rather small. We have a performance comparison with AKS and GKE: https://docs.edgeless.systems/constellation/overview/perform...
