#1521 Trying to fix with this. Looks like the endpointmanager now has a default regen time added. Below is the PR from cilium i attached. Also this seems to be running GC as well in the agent, do we need to? @huntergregory , can we disable GC in the agent as well ?

I think retina agent shouldn't modify cilium CRDs. We can have a custom k8s watcher instead of reusing Cilium's. The custom k8s watcher can use a dummy endpoint manager that does nothing
