on GitHub

Lotus v1.13.2 is a highly recommended feature release with remarkable retrieval improvements, new features like worker management, schedule enhancements and so on.

Highlights

• 🚀🚀🚀Improve retrieval deal experience
  • Testing result with MinerX.3 shows the retrieval deal success rate has increased dramatically with faster transfer
    speed, you can join or follow along furthur performance testings here. We recommend application developers to integrate with the new
    retrieval APIs to provide a better client experience.
  • 🌟🌟🌟 Reduce retrieval Time-To-First-Byte over 100x (#7693)
    • This change makes most free, small retrievals sub-second
  • 🌟🌟🌟 Partial retrieval ux improvements (#7610)
    • New retrieval commands for clients:
      • lotus client ls: retrieve and list desired object links
      • lotus client cat: retrieve and print the data from the network
    • 🌟🌟 The monolith ClientRetrieve method was broken into:
      • ClientRetrieve which retrieves data into the local repo (or into an IPFS node if ipfs integration is enabled)
      • ClientRetrieveWait which will wait for the retrieval to complete
      • ClientExport which will export data from the local node
      • Note: this change only applies to v1 API. v0 API remains unchanged.
    • 🌟 Support for full ipld selectors was added (for example making it possible to only retrieve list of directories in a deal, without fetching any file data)

• 🚀🚀 Sealing scheduler enhancements (#7703,#7269, #7714)
  • Workers are now aware of cgroup memory limits
  • Multiple tasks which use a GPU can be scheduled on a single worker
  • Workers can override default resource table through env vars
    • Default value list: https://gist.github.com/magik6k/c0e1c7cd73c1241a9acabc30bf469a43
• 🚀🚀 Sector storage groups (#7453)
  • Storage groups allow for better control of data flow between workers, for example, it makes it possible to define that data from PC1 on a given worker has to have it's PC2 step executed on the same worker
  • To set it up, follow the instructions under the Sector Storage Group section here
