Announcing Linkerd 2.20: Rate-limit-aware load balancing, reduced memory usage, better inbound metrics, and more

Linkerd 2.20 is now available! This release improves circuit breaking and load balancing to be aware of rate limit responses, significantly improves memory consumption of the control plane (especially on busy clusters), and improves Linkerd’s metrics suite for inbound traffic.
