- When `SchedulerQueueingHint` is enabled,
  the scheduler's in-tree plugins now subscribe to specific node events to decide whether to requeue Pods.
  This allows the scheduler to handle cluster events faster with less memory.

  Specific node events include updates to taints, tolerations or allocatable.

     * traverse. When nodes would otherwise be changed, new nodes are created to replace them. This
     * works well for hash tables since the bin lists tend to be short. (The average length is less
     * than two.)
     *
     * Read operations can thus proceed without locking, but rely on selected uses of volatiles to
     * ensure that completed write operations performed by other threads are noticed. For most

     * the expression begins with one or more '?'s then exactly that

     * Wildcard expressions will not filter workgroup names or server names.

- EndpointSlice controller is now less likely to emit FailedToUpdateEndpointSlices events. ([#100114](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/100114), [@robscott](https://github.com/robscott)) [SIG Apps and Network]

- VSphere releases less than 7.0u2 are not supported for in-tree vSphere volume  as of Kubernetes v1.25. Please consider upgrading vSphere (both ESXi and vCenter)  to 7.0u2 or above. ([#111255](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/111255), [@divyenpatel](https:/...

- The nftables mode of kube-proxy now uses less CPU when loading
  very large rulesets. ([#135800](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/135800), [@danwinship](https://github.com/danwinship)) [SIG Network]

- Pod priority and preemption enables Kubernetes scheduler to schedule more important Pods first and when cluster is out of resources, it removes less important pods to create room for more important ones. The importance is specified by priority.
