Description Clayton Coleman 2020-03-03 18:00:41 UTC
About 50% of pod patch status calls from Kubelets are no-ops (they don't change anything). We can detect that on the client side and avoid sending them, which reduces API traffic and CPU use on masters in large clusters.

Safe change with a nice performance win.
