- Made legacy watch calls (`ResourceVersion` = 0 or unset) that generate init-events weigh higher in `API Priority and Fairness (APF)` seat usage. Properly accounting for their cost protects the API server from CPU overload. Users might see increased throttling of such calls as a result.

### Bug or Regression

- Kube-apiserver: gzip compression switched from level 4 to level 1 to improve large list call latencies in exchange for higher network bandwidth usage (10-50% higher). This increases the headroom before very large unpaged list calls exceed request timeout limits.
