  • Platform/SRE — Plan: Despite being a patch release, 2.3.4 ships a breaking change: checkpoint restore in CreateContainer is now disabled by default, requiring an explicit config opt-in. Also fixes a memory leak in the OOM watcher and binary protobuf shim corruption. Review workloads using CRIU/checkpoint restore before upgrading; schedule the upgrade this quarter.
