## 📊 Performance Metrics

CoreLib 0.7.0 includes significant performance improvements through Java 21 optimizations:

- **5-15% faster** type conversions with pattern matching and switch expressions
- **Reduced memory allocation** in collection operations and bean copying

- Number of errors reported to the metric `storage_operation_duration_seconds_count` for emptyDir decreased significantly because previously one error was reported for each projected volume created. ([#117022](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/117022), [@mpatlasov](https://github.com/mpatlasov)) [SIG Storage]

### Bug or Regression

- An inefficient lock in EndpointSlice controller metrics cache has been reworked. Network programming latency may be significantly reduced in certain scenarios, especially in clusters with a large number of Services.

functionality to complete writing data to the datastore. Object storage operations are atomic by nature and they do not require/implement rename API. The default S3A committer emulates renames through copy and delete APIs. This interaction pattern causes significant loss of performance because of the write amplification. _Netflix_, for example, developed two new staging committers - the Directory staging committer and the Partitioned staging committer - to take full advantage of native object storage operations....

Constant expressions are always evaluated exactly; intermediate values and the
constants themselves may require precision significantly larger than supported
by any predeclared type in the language. The following are legal declarations:
