- DRA: scheduling pods is up to 16x faster, depending on the scenario. Scheduling throughput depends a lot on cluster utilization. It is higher for lightly loaded clusters with free resources and gets lower when the cluster utilization increases.

- The scheduler implemented QueueingHint in the TaintToleration plugin, enhancing the throughput of scheduling. ([#124287](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/124287), [@sanposhiho](https://github.com/sanposhiho)) [SIG Scheduling and Testing]

- Scheduler cache snapshot algorithm has been optimized to improve scheduling throughput. ([#74041](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/74041), [@bsalamat](https://github.com/bsalamat))

  pods` preferred inter-pod affinities if the incoming pod has no preferred inter-pod
  affinities. This option can be used as an optimization for higher scheduling throughput
  (at the cost of an occasional pod being scheduled non-optimally/violating existing
  pods preferred inter-pod affinities). To enable this scheduler option, set the

 * <p>Components can be registered in two ways:
 * <ul>
 *   <li>As singletons, where one instance is shared throughout the container's lifecycle</li>
 *   <li>As prototypes, where a new instance is created each time the component is requested</li>
 * </ul>

- TaintNodeByCondition has been moved to Beta and is enabled by default.
- Scheduler throughput has been improved by ~50% in large clusters (>2000 nodes).
