mainnet-2025-jan-14

Notable changes:

• Fixed piece cache sync in cluster mode
• Silence cluster plotting timeout warning logs
• Reduce block propagation/production gap when new segment of the history is archived and blocks are finalized
• Gateway improvements with some breaking changes

Build variants

There are two versions of x86-64 builds for Ubuntu and Windows:

• skylake: for Intel Skylake/AMD Ryzen processors and newer
• x86-64-v2: for older processors since ~2009 and some old VMs
• older processors/VMs are no longer supported by official releases, but can still be compiled manually if desired
• x86-64 container images are built for Skylake/AMD Ryzen processors and newer only

Farmer builds with -rocm suffix are for plotting with AMD GPUs.

runtime-taurus-2025-jan-10

This is a runtime upgrade release for the consensus chain on Taurus testnet, spec version 11.

This release is built on top of the previous release (runtime-taurus-2025-jan-08) to add storage migration for the Operator structure change.

runtime-taurus-2025-jan-08

This is a runtime upgrade release for the consensus chain on Taurus testnet, spec version 10.
The main changes this release brings is:

• removal of history seeding functionality
• incorrect vote equivocation fix

taurus-2025-jan-07

Notable changes:

• Piece cache sync improvements in cluster setup
• --cache-group on cluster component can now be specified more than once to manage multiple cache groups (and allows cache groups to sync from each other)
• --cache-group can be optionally specified on cluster plotter to localize piece downloading
• Internal proving benchmark is removed and ConcurrentChunks is now the default; WholeSector can still be specified, but will be removed unless there are indications of it still being helpful
• Small fixes to object mapping handling
• Faster and more reliable piece downloading during Snap sync and sync from DSN
• Randomize replotting start to avoid load spikes when new segment is archived
• Improved cache logging
• Gateway piece retrieval fixes and minor API changes
• Silence annoying messages about missing plotter in cluster setup
• Fixes for object mapping creation
• Improved utilization of multiple GPUs in cluster setup
