@@ -1,3 +1,45 @@ +WiredTiger release 1.6.4, 2013-08-20 +------------------------------------ + +This is primarily a bugfix and performance tuning release. The main changes are: + +* Make prefix compression of keys conditional on the amount of space saved. + A database format change was required for this enhancement. See upgrading + documentation for details. [#624] + +* The default behavior of the wt utility's load command has been changed to + overwrite existing data. + +* Add a WT_SESSION.create prefix_compression_min configuration option with a + default value of 4. [#624] and [#624] + +* Fix "make install" of Python API. [#598] + +* Require platform support for atomic read/write of 64 bit values. [#553] + +* Support transaction semantics for custom data source implementations. Enhance + Memrata data source to support transactions. + +* Changes to the wtperf testing tool related to how configuration options are + specified. + +* Enhance cursor key/value memory management to be more efficient, consistent, + and have stricter checking of inputs and outputs. + +* Increase the likelihood of being able to evict hot pages. [#604] + +* Reference on-page keys instead of copying them to allocated memory. This + saves space in the cache and overhead when reading pages into cache. + [#592] and [#600] + +* Add a btree search optimization that skips matching prefixes. [#595] + +* Turn off Huffman encoding for keys on row-store internal pages. [#592] + +* Add concurrent logging infrastructure that will be used to support write + ahead logging in a future release. + + WiredTiger release 1.6.3, 2013-07-12 ------------------------------------ @@ -1,4 +1,4 @@ -WiredTiger 1.6.4: (July 12, 2013) +WiredTiger 1.6.4: (August 21, 2013) This is version 1.6.4 of WiredTiger. diff --git a/build_posix/aclocal/version-set.m4 b/build_posix/aclocal/version-set.m4 index 11af76aabfa..dbe87891e9c 100644 --- a/build_posix/aclocal/version-set.m4 +++ b/build_posix/aclocal/version-set.m4 @@ -3,7 +3,7 @@ dnl build by dist/s_version VERSION_MAJOR=1 VERSION_MINOR=6 VERSION_PATCH=4 -VERSION_STRING='"WiredTiger 1.6.4: (July 12, 2013)"' +VERSION_STRING='"WiredTiger 1.6.4: (August 21, 2013)"' AC_SUBST(VERSION_MAJOR) AC_SUBST(VERSION_MINOR) diff --git a/src/docs/top/main.dox b/src/docs/top/main.dox index a21bec055e5..f05bcc0e479 100644 --- a/src/docs/top/main.dox +++ b/src/docs/top/main.dox @@ -6,9 +6,9 @@ WiredTiger is an high performance, scalable, production quality, NoSQL, @section releases Releases <table> -@row{<b>WiredTiger 1.6.3</b> (current), - <a href="releases/wiredtiger-1.6.3.tar.bz2"><b>[Release package]</b></a>, - <a href="1.6.3/index.html"><b>[Documentation]</b></a>} +@row{<b>WiredTiger 1.6.4</b> (current), + <a href="releases/wiredtiger-1.6.4.tar.bz2"><b>[Release package]</b></a>, + <a href="1.6.4/index.html"><b>[Documentation]</b></a>} @row{<b>WiredTiger 1.5.3</b> (previous), <a href="releases/wiredtiger-1.5.3.tar.bz2"><b>[Release package]</b></a>, <a href="1.5.3/index.html"><b>[Documentation]</b></a>} |
