This is a sketch of an alternative implementation of WatchClient, which is completely synchronous and doesn't cache any values aside from what informers do. In principle, this trades CPU for memory, but in limited testing this implementation has performed around 10% better than the current one, while also being significantly simpler. We can even add a cache to it later if need be, and it should be easier to manage given that we can always recompute the values on demand.
This implementation is missing two features at the moment:
observability.go
do it on its own.
