Problem with high memory consumption on kube-apiserver about cert-utils-operator

[raffaelespazzoli]

when cert-utils starts it creates watch on secret and configmaps, so when you have ton of them it will generate significant load on the kube api servers. But that should be only at the beginning. Then the load should subside. Unless your secrets are constantly changing.
We will do some investigation on this on our side.

Hello everyone,
I can confirm the behavior if the cert-utils operator changes configmaps and secrets, which are created or managed by other operators in the cluster.
Here is exactly the same problem: #120 or #127
The loops result in massive amounts of API calls....
And this is not an Openshift specific problem....
This is also not a problem or effect from a specific cluster size - here it only becomes significantly visible....
