30 pull request activity items, 22 additional commits this week.
The lead pattern is efficiency and correctness work to prepare existing features for graduation, centered on scheduling, the API server watch path, and command line reliability.
First, scheduling and dynamic resource allocation. Pull request 143560 promotes allocator implementations, making incubating the default, stable the conservative option, and reserving experimental for future features. Pull request 143450 fixes a regression where a stored allocation from the pre-bind step was lost on…
Second, API server storage and flow control. Pull request 143595 avoids an extra periodic bookmark one second after watch list initialization. Pull request 143592 makes watch cache ignore not found errors, and pull request 143500 moves the forget function under the cacher lock. The rest of the week adds grouped…
