- StatefulSet controllers no longer force a resync every 30 seconds when nothing has changed. ([#75622](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/75622), [@jonsabo](https://github.com/jonsabo))

  a bug in the transforming informer during the Resync operation, 
  by making the transforming function idempotent. ([#124352](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/124352), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t)) [SIG API Machinery and Scheduling]

* Fix resync goroutine leak in ListAndWatch ([#35672](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/35672), [@tatsuhiro-t](https://github.com/tatsuhiro-t))

  `sync_partial_proxy_rules_duration_seconds` (in addition to the existing\n`sync_proxy_rules_duration_seconds`),
  giving better information about the duration of each \nsync type, rather than
  only giving a weighted average of the two sync types together. ([#117787](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117787), [@danwinship](https://github.com/danwinship))

- In "large" clusters, kube-proxy in iptables mode will now sometimes
  leave unused rules in iptables for a while (up to `--iptables-sync-period`)
  before deleting them. This improves performance by not requiring it to
  check for stale rules on every sync. (In smaller clusters, it will still
  remove unused rules immediately once they are no longer used.)

## Changelog since v1.9.4

### Other notable changes

* gce: fixes race condition in ServiceController, where nodes weren't updated in the node sync loop, by updating TargetPools in the ensureExternalLoadBalancer call. ([#58368](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58368), [@MrHohn](https://github.com/MrHohn))

   * Fix version on startup and `--version` flag

   * Support specifying port number for nameserver in stubDomains

#### kube-proxy
* Features:

  * ratelimit runs of iptables by sync-period flags ([#46266](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/46266), [@thockin](https://github.com/thockin))
