* Disable the metadata agent for monitored resource construction in logging.
    * Disable timestamp adjustment in logs to optimize performance.
    * Reduce logging agent buffer chunk limit to 512k to optimize performance.

* kubelet: resolved hang/timeout issues when running large numbers of pods with unique configmap/secret references ([#74755](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/74755), [@liggitt](https://github.com/liggitt))
* Reduce memory utilization of admission webhook metrics by removing resource related labels. ([#69895](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/69895), [@jpbetz](https://github.com/jpbetz))

* Fix concurrent map access panic ([#65327](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/65327), [@dashpole](https://github.com/dashpole))
    * Don't watch .mount cgroups to reduce number of inotify watches
    * Fix NVML initialization race condition
    * Fix brtfs disk metrics when using a subdirectory of a subvolume

* Flex drivers by default do not produce metrics. Flex plugins can enable metrics collection by setting  the capability 'supportsMetrics' to true. Make sure the file system can support fs stat to produce metrics in this case. ([#67508](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/67508), [@brahmaroutu](https://github.com/brahmaroutu))

# v1.15.11

[Documentation](https://docs.k8s.io)

- Reduced GCE log rotation check from 1 hour to every 5 minutes.  Rotation policy is unchanged (new day starts, log file size > 100MB). ([#72062](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/72062), [@jpbetz](https://github.com/jpbetz))

### Network

- Reduce vSphere volume name to 63 characters ([#100404](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/100404), [@gnufied](https://github.com/gnufied)) [SIG Storage]

* We change the default attach_detach_controller sync period to 1 minute to reduce the query frequency through cloud provider to check whether volumes are attached or not.  ([#41363](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/41363), [@jingxu97](https://github.com/jingxu97))

* New flag --endpoint-updates-batch-period in kube-controller-manager can be used to reduce number of endpoints updates generated by pod changes. ([#80509](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/80509), [@mborsz](https://github.com/mborsz))
