- Scale max-inflight now limits together with master VM sizes. ([#73268](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/73268), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

* API server now has two separate limits for read-only and mutating inflight requests. ([#36064](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/36064), [@gmarek](https://github.com/gmarek))

* Enable prometheus apiserver metrics for custom resources. ([#57682](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/57682), [@nikhita](https://github.com/nikhita))

* Add apiserver metric for number of requests dropped because of inflight limit, making it easier to figure out on which dimension the master is overloaded. ([#58340](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58340), [@gmarek](https://github.com/gmarek))

* Add apiserver metric for number of requests dropped because of inflight limit. ([#58340](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58340), [@gmarek](https://github.com/gmarek))
* Add apiserver metric for current inflight-request usage. ([#58342](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/58342), [@gmarek](https://github.com/gmarek))

* Scale max-inflight limits together with master VM sizes. ([#73268](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/73268), [@wojtek-t](https://github.com/wojtek-t))

   * The maximum number of requests to execute concurrently. Above this requests queue in memory,
   * waiting for the running calls to complete.
   *
   * If more than [maxRequests] requests are in flight when this is invoked, those requests will
   * remain in flight.
