A release that brings reproducible precompiled binaries for ARM devices and
significant performance improvements.


New additions:

  • Reproducible build recipe for creating Nimbus Linux binaries intended for
    ARM devices.

  • Improved attestation subnet walking logic: this brings significant reductions
    in bandwidth usage and CPU load.

  • Better usage of the Sqlite3 checkpointing API (minor performance
    improvement).

  • Larger window for the candidate attestations included in blocks: this can lead
    to higher block rewards.

We've fixed:

  • Incorrect attnets value announced in ENR records.

Please note that the 1.0.5 release was retracted: it included an
optimization to the reproducible build scripts that turned out to be buggy
(specifically, the binary for AMD64 systems was affected). Manually built binaries (through Make) were not affected. This release (1.0.6) fixes the problem and contains the same release notes.
