Fix for Kubelet TCP/HTTP probes: improve network resources utilization
#k8s
#solved
Solution Summary
Kubernetes environments can suffer from network resource exhaustion due to inefficient TCP and HTTP probes initiated by the kubelet. The solution, merged in PR #115143, optimizes probe resource utilization by adjusting connection teardown and reuse mechanisms. This significantly reduces socket consumption and improves overall network stability in large-scale clusters.
