Jenkins Agents On Kubernetes
default is where any actions which require a namespace will go into if one is not explicitly defined in a default setup (tools such as kubens can alter this behavior). In the context of Jenkins, namespaces are a useful way to allow isolation of individual Jenkins instances that want to utilize the same Kubernetes cluster. Creation of a namespace is a simple option to kubectl:

Schedule on Least Utilized Node
If you are using the docker socket just for building container images, you might want to look into kaniko. It doesn't use docker to build images. If you use the socket also for starting containers (we are actually doing that in our CI pipelines), you could think about limiting the pods Kubernetes schedules on a node (you can change the default of 110 using the kubelet config file).
