Public bug reported:

Depending on distribution the default number of tasks (threads) maybe
unexpectedly low or it may be the default systemd setting (512). Given
that more and more installers and other code are taking advantage of
multiprocessing capabilities it is becoming more likely that during
execution of user scripts in cloud-init the task resource limit is
reached. This leads to the forceful termination of the process.
