+
+The Apache DataFusion PMC is pleased to announce version 0.7.0 of the
[Comet](https://datafusion.apache.org/comet/) subproject.
+
+Comet is an accelerator for Apache Spark that translates Spark physical plans
to DataFusion physical plans for
+improved performance and efficiency without requiring any code changes.
+
+Comet runs on commodity hardware and aims to provide 100% compatibility with
Apache Spark. Any operators or
+expressions that are not fully compatible will fall back to Spark unless
explicitly enabled by the user. Refer
+to the [compatibility guide] for more information.
+
+[compatibility guide]:
https://datafusion.apache.org/comet/user-guide/compatibility.html
+
+This release covers approximately four weeks of development work and is the
result of merging 46 PRs from 11
+contributors. See the [change log] for more information.

+## Release Highlights
+
+### Performance
+
+Comet 0.7.0 has improved performance compared to the previous release due to
improvements in the native shuffle
+implementation and performance improvements in DataFusion 46.
+
+For single-node TPC-H at 100 GB, Comet now delivers a **greater than 2x
speedup** compared to Spark using the same
+CPU and RAM. Even with **half the resources**, Comet still provides a
measurable performance improvement.

+
+*These benchmarks were performed on a Linux workstation with PCIe 5, AMD 7950X
CPU (16 cores), 128 GB RAM, and data
+stored locally in Parquet format on NVMe storage. Spark was running in
Kubernetes with hard memory limits.*
+
+## Shuffle Improvements
+
+There are several improvements to shuffle in this release:
+
+- When running in off-heap mode (which is the recommended approach), Comet was
using the wrong memory allocator
+ implementation for some types of shuffle operation, which could result in
OOM rather than spilling to disk.
+- The number of spill files is drastically reduced. In previous releases, each
instance of ShuffleMapTask could
+ potentially create a new spill file for each output partition each time that
spill was invoked. Comet now creates
+ a maximum of one spill file per output partition per instance of
ShuffleMapTask, which is appended to in subsequent
+ spills.
+- There was a flaw in the memory accounting which resulted in Comet requesting
approximately twice the amount of
+ memory that was needed, resulting in premature spilling. This is now
resolved.
+- The metric for number of spilled bytes is now accurate. It was previously
reporting invalid information.
+
+## Improved Hash Join Performance
+
+When using the `spark.comet.exec.replaceSortMergeJoin` setting to replace
sort-merge joins with hash joins, Comet
+will now do a better job of picking the optimal build side. Thanks to
[@hayman42] for suggesting this, and thanks to the
+[Apache Gluten(incubating)] project for the inspiration in implementing this
feature.

+
+## Experimental Support for DataFusion’s DataSourceExec
+
+It is now possible to configure Comet to use DataFusion’s `DataSourceExec`
instead of Comet’s current Parquet reader.
+Support should still be considered experimental, but most of Comet’s unit
tests are now passing with the new reader.
+Known issues include handling of `INT96` timestamps and negative bytes and
shorts.
Review Comment:
Did you mean `unsigned bytes and shorts` by `negative bytes and shorts`?

What about `CPUs` instead of `commodity`?
