Dear BURD users, We have something special for you today. We're releasing a multi-threaded BIRD version 3.0-alpha0 for public testing. Protocols BGP, RPKI and Pipe got their own channels which promises faster convergence and better usage of system resources. Version 3.0-alpha0 is based on the previous 2.0.8 version and some enhancements from 2.0.9 will make it into the multi-threaded branch later on.
There is also a blogpost about performance comparison we have recently done between 3.0-alpha0 and 2.0.8 (the previous single-threaded version) and you can read there also other articles about the multi-threaded version. We do not recommend running this version in production setups, yet wedeeply appreciate any bugreports, including memory footprint problems. You can download the tgz package at the following URLs:
