* start and configure additional etcd instance
* configure api-server to use it for storing events
### Size of master and master components
On GCE/GKE, `kube-up` automatically configures the proper VM size for your master depending on the number of nodes
in your cluster. On other providers, you will need to configure it manually. For reference, the sizes we use on GCE are
* 1-5 nodes: n1-standard-1
* 6-10 nodes: n1-standard-2
* 11-100 nodes: n1-standard-4
* 101-250 nodes: n1-standard-8
* 251-500 nodes: n1-standard-16
* more than 500 nodes: n1-standard-32
We have measured the following 99th percentile resource consumption for the various master components at
(100 nodes/500 nodes/1000 nodes) cluster size:
* main etcd instance: CPU (0.135/0.241/0.312) RAM MB (242/706/1792)
* events etcd instance: CPU (0.082/0.099/0.095) RAM MB (237/746/1846)
* API server: CPU (1.233/3.0/5.9) RAM MB (895/2439/4285)
* controller manager: CPU (0.345/0.633/3.57) RAM MB (320/1624/4507)
* scheduler: CPU (0.232/1.576/1.758) RAM MB (48/167/5541)
In a future Kubernetes release, we will set container limits based on these values, but for now these
containers do not have limits set.
### Addon Resources
To prevent memory leaks or other resource issues in [cluster addons](https://releases.k8s.io/{{page.githubbranch}}/cluster/addons) from consuming all the resources available on a node, Kubernetes sets resource limits on addon containers to limit the CPU and Memory resources they can consume (See PR [#10653](http://pr.k8s.io/10653/files) and [#10778](http://pr.k8s.io/10778/files)).
