Description:

Support PreconnectPolicy for Clusters to enable pre-established connections to upstream to address issues with low RPS Services

Can these issues be mitigated with extended idle timeouts (excluding some of early traffic), instead of connection prefetching?

Are you currently using this (or similar) functionality? Can you maybe share some additional details?
