- pod_workers: pod syncing - prober workers: container syncing In order to synchronize the current state of Kubernetes's objects (e.g. pods, containers, etc.), periodic synch loops are run. When there is a lot of objects to synchronize with, loops increase communication traffic. At some point when all the traffic interfere cpu usage curve hits the roof causing 100% cpu utilization. To distribute the traffic in time, some sync loops can jitter their period in each loop and help to flatten the curve.
