I have 6 google nodes with single core and kube-system pods take too much of CPU.

I understand memory is needed to function properly but CPU could be lowered without any major issue in dev environment. What happens if DNS would work 10 times slower? 27% of node for single system dns pod is too much.
As peer the documentation To specify a CPU request for a Container, include the resources:requests field in the Container’s resource manifest. To specify a CPU limit, include resources:limits see exemple below:
apiVersion: v1
kind: Pod
metadata:
name: cpu-demo
namespace: cpu-example
spec:
containers:
- name: cpu-demo-ctr
image: vish/stress
resources:
limits:
cpu: "1"
requests:
cpu: "0.5"
args:
- -cpus
- "2"One cpu, in GCP Kubernetes, is equivalent to: 1 GCP Core. the CPU limit for a Pod is the sum of the CPU limits for all the Containers in the Pod.
Pod scheduling is based on requests. A Pod is scheduled to run on a Node only if the Node has enough CPU resources available to satisfy the Pod’s CPU request.
You can create a default cpu-request-limit manifest and apply it to the kube-system namespace:
Now if a Container is created in the kube-system namespace, and the Container does not specify its own values for CPU request and CPU limit, the Container is given a default CPU request of 0.5 and a default CPU limit of 1.
