Replicator pod crashing after replicating secret to a large number of namespaces

Describe the bug We are replicating a secret across 100+ namespaces. Replicator successfully replicates the secret but when its starts to cycle a check on the namespaces to validate that the secret exists the pod crashes, and starts restarting.

Apologies; this should not have gotten stale. 🙏 You mentioned the controller crashing after the first reconciliation; do you happen to have any logs available from that moment when the controller crashed?
