Riak Users, First off, sorry for the lack of updates on the RC front for a while, but we've been busy testing Riak prepping for 1.3 release. Today we'd like to make available RC4 for your viewing / testing / benchmarking pleasure. The last public RC I sent out was RC2, so what happened to RC3? RC3 had some performance tweaks we were testing internally so I didn't bother sending that out if 99.9% of users would not have noticed any difference. Below are the changes to RC4. If you are a eleveldb backend user, you should see quite a large performance bump if you tried out 1.3.0 RC1 or RC2.
- Several performance changes to eleveldb backend - riak/274: Riak fails to start on a single CPU machine<https://github.com/basho/riak/issues/274> - bitcask/76: Make Bitcask I/O mode configurable: Erlang vs NIF<https://github.com/basho/bitcask/pull/76> - bitcask/77: Change default Bitcask I/O mode to Erlang<https://github.com/basho/bitcask/pull/77> - riak_control/53: style.css file missing from some packages<https://github.com/basho/riak_control/pull/53> - riak_kv/482: Randomize the LevelDB write_buffer_size used for AAE<https://github.com/basho/riak_kv/pull/482> - riak_kv/483: Improve AAE backpressure on K/V vnode write-path<https://github.com/basho/riak_kv/pull/483> - riak_kv/486: Make AAE default to 'off' when not configured<https://github.com/basho/riak_kv/pull/486> The full release notes are here: https://github.com/basho/riak/blob/1.3/RELEASE-NOTES.md The download is available here: http://docs.basho.com/riak/1.3.0rc4/downloads/ Thanks as always from the whole team! -Basho
