   * The Least Recently Used page replacement algorithm was chosen due to its simplicity, high hit
   * rate, and ability to be implemented with O(1) time complexity. The initial LRU implementation
   * operates per-segment rather than globally for increased implementation simplicity. We expect
   * the cache hit rate to be similar to that of a global LRU algorithm.

  //    it would just add an edge such that if done() observed non-null, then it would also

    value has always been nullable but it wasn't declared properly.
 *  Fix: Reverse suppression of connect exceptions. When both a call and its retry fail, we now
    throw the initial exception which is most likely to be actionable.
 *  Fix: Retain interrupted state when throwing `InterruptedIOException`. A single interrupt should
    now be sufficient to break out an in-flight OkHttp call.

*   `tf.data`

    * `tf.data` now has an `autotune_options.initial_parallelism` option to
      control the initial parallelism setting used by autotune before the data
      pipeline has started running. The default is 16. A lower value reduces
      initial memory usage, while a higher value improves startup time.

## Keras

by cert rotation were created in a combined PEM file that was atomically rotated as `kubelet-client-DATE.pem` in that directory, which meant clients relying on the `node.kubeconfig` generated by bootstrapping would never use a rotated cert.  The initial bootstrap certificate is now generated into the cert directory as a PEM file and symlinked to `kubelet-client-current.pem` so that the generated kubeconfig remains valid after rotation.
