 ## CPU Startup Boost

-> FEATURE STATE: VPA v1.5.0 [alpha]
+> FEATURE STATE: VPA v1.6.0 [alpha]
 
 The CPU Startup Boost feature allows VPA to temporarily increase CPU requests and limits for containers during pod startup. This can help workloads that have high CPU demands during their initialization phase, such as Java applications, to start faster. Once the pod is considered `Ready` and an optional duration has passed, VPA scales the CPU resources back down to their normal levels using an in-place resize.

-The `startupBoost` field has the following sub-fields:
-*   `cpu.type`: The type of boost. Can be `Factor` (default) to multiply the CPU, or `Quantity` to set a specific CPU value.
-*   `cpu.value`: The magnitude of the boost. A multiplier (e.g., "2") for `Factor` type, or a resource quantity (e.g., "500m") for `Quantity` type.
-*   `cpu.duration`: (Optional) How long to keep the boost active *after* the pod becomes `Ready`. Defaults to `0s`.
