Release 2.6.10

on GitHub

The release introduces a few improvements, bug fixes, and one new endpoint.

• Fix two memory issues that occasionally cause out-of-memory exceptions:
  • When running a VDF server with a slow VDF client, the memory footprint of the VDF server would gradually increase until all memory was consumed;
  • When syncing weave data the memory use of a node would spike when copying data locally between neighboring partitions, occasionally triggering an out-of-memory exception
• implement the GET /total_supply endpoint to return the sum of all the existing accounts in the latest state, in Winston;
• several performance improvements to the weave sync process;
• remove the following metrics from the /metrics endpoint (together accounting for several thousand individual metrics):
  • erlang_vm_msacc_XXX
  • erlang_vm_allocators
  • erlang_vm_dist_XXX

The release comes with the prebuilt binaries for the Linux x86_64 platforms.
