Slow workload creation with VPA addon enabled.

[joivo]

Description

When using the VPA addon in the aws-ia/terraform-aws-eks-blueprints-addons module, workload creation is significantly slower than expected. This can impact the overall deployment time and user experience. Creation of Deployment or Statefulsets are taking > ~30s for the workload to be available in the API server (pod in pending state).

Reproduction:

1. Configure your AWS credentials and other necessary environment variables.
2. Enable the the VPA addon in the desired namespace.
3. Run terraform init and terraform apply to deploy the EKS cluster with VPA enabled.
4. Observe the time it takes for workloads to be created.

Expected behavior: Workloads should be created within a reasonable timeframe, similar to deployments without VPA.

Actual behavior: Workload creation is taking significantly longer than expected, even for simple workloads.

Versions:

• Module basic_addons.vpa in .terraform/modules/basic_addons.vpa version: 1.1.1
• Terraform version: v1.9.5 (replace with your actual version)
• AWS Provider version: v5.60.0 (replace with your actual version)
• Kubernetes: Client Version: v1.30.2, Kustomize Version: v5.0.4-0.20230601165947-6ce0bf390ce3, Server Version: v1.30.3-eks-2f46c53

Additional context:

• I have tried different workload configurations and cluster sizes, but the issue persists.
• I have checked the EKS cluster logs for any errors or warnings related to VPA.
