The Bee team is excited to announce the latest release!
The main focus of the team for past few weeks has been tightening loose ends surrounding chunk syncing.
The release also features a new API endpoint that returns the status of the node related to the storage incentives, like total reward won and the last round the node has participated and won.
Hardening
- The puller also does syncing of proximity order bin with peers outside of the neighborhood and the pushync protocol uses the storage radius for chunk replication . (#3703)
- Rewrote the retrieval protocol to improve readability and maintainability. (#3671)
- Increased the size of the batch of chunks pulled per a single pullsync request. (#3754)
- Removed some stale config options, like block hash and transaction. (#3765)
- Lowered accounting package logging level to two. (#3771)
- Peers that timeout for historical pullsync requests are blocklisted for some time. (#3774)
New features
- Added a new API endpoint (/redistributionstate) that responds with the storage incentives state of node. (#3683)
Bug Fixes
- The depthmonitor resets the storage radius to the reserve radius only for fresh nodes. (#3757)
- The pusher does stamp validation of chunks in the queue just before pushing the chunk, not when entering the queue. (#3760)
