- Added alpha support for asynchronous Pod preemption.
  When the `SchedulerAsyncPreemption` feature gate is enabled, the scheduler now runs API calls to trigger preemptions asynchronously for better performance. ([#128170](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/128170), [@sanposhiho](https://github.com/sanposhiho)) [SIG Scheduling and Testing]

* Fixes a goroutine leak in kube-apiserver when a request times out. ([#83333](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83333), [@lavalamp](https://github.com/lavalamp))
* Fix aggressive VM calls for Azure VMSS ([#83102](https://github.com/kubernetes/kubernetes/pull/83102), [@feiskyer](https://github.com/feiskyer))

- 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.

### Bug or Regression

- Avoid GCE API calls when initializing GCE CloudProvider for Kubelets.
