Thanks for starting the discussion Gyula! It comes down to how important the outstanding changes are for the release. Both the memory tuning as well as the JDBC changes probably need 1-2 weeks realistically to complete the initial spec. For the memory tuning, I would prefer merging it in the current state as an experimental feature for the release which comes disabled out of the box. The reason is that it can already be useful to users who want to try it out; we have seen some interest in it. Then for the next release we will offer a richer feature set and might enable it by default.
