on GitHub

This is a maintenance release bringing performance and security improvements.

4.4.4

• Fix typo in environment variable CONCORDIUM_NODE_PROMETHEUS_LISTEN_ADDRESSS (remove trailing S).
• Speed up and reduce memory overhead during protocol updates.
• Smart contract modules are no longer retained in memory. Module artifacts are loaded as needed
  during contract execution. Metadata is cached for a limited number of smart contract modules.
  By default, the cache will retain metadata for at most 1000 smart contract modules, and this is
  configurable via the --modules-cache-size command line argument or by using the
  CONCORDIUM_NODE_CONSENSUS_MODULES_CACHE_SIZE environment variable.
• Smart contract state is no longer cached on startup and is not cached after
  finalization.
• Partial node database recovery. The node is now able to recover from the most
  common causes of its database corruption.
• The node now validates pending blocks as much as possible, and does not relay them.
  Only blocks with known ancestry are relayed.
