Features

  • Record syncer bandwidth stats.
  • Register an alert if funding a contract formation, renewal or refresh fails.
  • Track disk I/O in metrics.

Add support for instant sync

New users can sync nearly instantly. With hostd --instant, the hostd node doesn’t replay the entire blockchain. Instead it initializes from any Utreexo-based checkpoint and immediately begins validating blocks from that point forward. The state is extremely compact and committed in block headers, making this initialization both quick and secure. Learn more

The wallet is required to only have v2 history to use instant syncing.

Cache sector subtrees to reduce disk IO for partial reads.

This change reduces the minimum read size from 4MiB to 4KiB when reading segments of a sector.

Fixes

  • Add monitoring and rate limiting for quic.
  • Update core dependency to v0.19.0 and coreutils dependency v0.20.0.
