I did see a number of people indicating similar issues with etcd versions in the 3.3.x range, so I didn't think of it being an etcd issue, but then again most issues seem to be a result of people using HDDs and not SSDs, which makes sense.

I can see this becoming an issue quickly without super-low-latency network and storage.  We are using Ceph-based SSD volumes for the Kubernetes Master node disks, which is extremely fast (likely 10x or better than anything people recommend for etcd), but network latency is always going to be higher with VMs on OpenStack with DVR than bare metal with VLANs due to all of the abstractions.
