kubernetes: Builds are taking too long
Over a year ago, we had the kubernetes-build job down <5m. It’s now coming in at 30m. Some of that shot up really recently, too, looking at the build time trend:

It looks like sometime around #10384, we shot up from a fat 20m another 50% to 30m. Can we at least eliminate that jump?
Is there anything else we can do here? Maybe split the non-amd64 builds off to a separate job so that our whole CI infrastructure isn’t tied to them?

If we move to just building hyperkube (and deprecate the individual binaries) we’ll have less to build and package up. I imagine that will speed things up. #16508
If it’s possible, it would be great with a presubmit jenkins job that does run in parallell with KUBE_FASTBUILD e2e tests.
Otherwise, the SQ will be blocked after a breaking change for non-amd64 builds, not before merging the PR
