I think current name of this flag could be more descriptive. What do you think about in-recommendation-bounds-eviction-lifetime-threshold?

I think prefix in-recommendation is unnecessary

what do you think about this names with pod prefix?

Name Default Usage
pod-update-threshold 0.1 Ignore updates that have priority lower than the value of this flag
pod-eviction-lifetime-threshold 12h Pods that live for at least that long can be evicted even if their request is within the [MinRecommended...MaxRecommended] range

I think that the in-recommendatiotion-bounds part is necessary (we will evict younger pods, if they are out of the [MinRecommended...MaxRecommended] interval).

pod-eviction-lifetime-threshold sounds like we wouldn't evict younger pods no matter what to me

Looks like I didn't explain myself clearly enough, sorry about that. I think that we need the in-recommendation-bounds prefix for the flag that controls after how long VPA will evict pods which have requests in the \[MinRecommended...MaxRecommended`] interval.

We don't need the prefix for the flag which controls priority threshold, below which we will ignore updates.

So I'm suggesting

Name Default Usage
pod-update-threshold 0.1 Ignore updates that have priority lower than the value of this flag
in-recommendation-bounds-eviction-lifetime-threshold 12h Pods that live for at least that long can be evicted even if their request is within the [MinRecommended...MaxRecommended] range
