- Apiserver `/healthz/etcd` endpoint rate limits the number of forwarded health check requests to the etcd backends, answering with the last known state if the rate limit is exceeded. The rate limit is based on 1/2 of the timeout configured, with no burst allowed. ([#112046](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/112046), [@aojea](https://github.com/aojea))...

* Separate current ARM rate limiter into read/write ([#59830](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/59830), [@khenidak](https://github.com/khenidak))

- kube-apiserver: fixes error creating system priority classes when starting multiple apiservers simultaneously ([#67372](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67372), [@tanshanshan](https://github.com/tanshanshan))
-  Forget rate limit when CRD establish controller successfully updated CRD condition ([#67370](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67370), [@yue9944882](https://github.com/yue9944882))

### **Instrumentation**

#### **Audit**

*   Adjust batching audit webhook default parameters: increase queue size, batch size, and initial backoff. Add throttling to the batching audit webhook. Default rate limit is 10 QPS.

- Fixed a bug that caused a DaemonSet rolling update to hang when its pod gets stuck at terminating.  ([#77773](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/77773), [@DaiHao](https://github.com/DaiHao))
- Route controller now respects rate limiting to the cloud provider on deletion; previously it was only for create. ([#78581](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/78581), [@andrewsykim](https://github.com/andrewsykim))

- Fixed clearing of rate-limiter for the queue of checks for cleaning stale pod disruption conditions. The bug could result in the PDB synchronization updates firing too often or the pod disruption cleanups taking too long to happen. ([#114770](https://github.com/kubernet...

- client-go discovery clients constructed using `NewDiscoveryClientForConfig` or `NewDiscoveryClientForConfigOrDie` default to rate limits that cause normal discovery request patterns to take several seconds. This is fixed in https://issue.k8s.io/86168 and will be resolved in v1.17.1. As a workaround, the `Burst` value can be adjusted higher in the rest.Config passed into `New...

- Expose `rest_client_rate_limiter_duration_seconds` metric to component-base to track client side rate limiter latency in seconds. Broken down by verb and URL.
