Monthly summary for 2024-11 focused on major/ec2-plugin. Delivered a performance-oriented logging improvement by introducing lazy logging for subnet ID selection: refactored two log statements in SlaveTemplate.java to use lambda expressions, deferring string formatting until the log level is FINE or lower, with no changes to core subnet selection behavior. This change reduces CPU overhead in high-volume logging paths while preserving observability and existing behavior.
