- Added memory tracking to scheduler performance tests to help detect memory leaks and monitored memory usage patterns while running `scheduler_perf`. ([#132910](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/132910), [@utam0k](https://github.com/utam0k)) [SIG Scheduling and Testing]

- InPlacePodVerticalScaling: Memory limits cannot be decreased unless the memory resize restart policy is set to `RestartContainer`. Container resizePolicy is no longer mutable. ([#130183](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/130183), [@tallclair](https://github.com/tallclair)) [SIG Apps and Node]

* Check if container memory stats are available before accessing it ([#77656](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/77656), [@yastij](https://github.com/yastij))

- Kubernetes will try to acquire the iptables lock every 100 msec during 5 seconds instead of every second. This is especially useful for environments using kube-proxy in iptables mode with a high churn rate of services. ([#85771](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/85771), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea)) [SIG...

- Fixed a possible memory leak in the QueueingHint (alpha feature). ([#126962](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/126962), [@sanposhiho](https://github.com/sanposhiho))
- Fixed a potential memory leak in QueueingHint (alpha feature). ([#127016](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/127016), [@sanposhiho](https://github.com/sanposhiho))

* Fixes a bug where kubelet crashes trying to free memory under memory pressure. ([#58574](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58574), [@yastij](https://github.com/yastij))

* Get windows kernel version directly from registry ([#58498](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58498), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer))

- Fix memory leak in kube-apiserver when underlying time goes forth and back. ([#96266](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/96266), [@chenyw1990](https://github.com/chenyw1990)) [SIG API Machinery]

- Fixes a kubelet and kube-apiserver memory leak in default 1.29 configurations related to tracing. ([#126985](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/126985), [@dashpole](https://github.com/dashpole)) [SIG API Machinery and Node]
