If shutdown occurred at + a specific time those updates would be discarded without being written. + refs SUPPORT-1248 + +* Fix some bugs in logging - where system crashes could leave empty files that + would stop recovery working on re-start. + refs #1717 #1719 + +* Fix a bug in recovery. Force recovery instead of returning an error if the + LSN given doesn't exist. + refs #1700 #1704 + +* Move writing into log worker thread to avoid latency in application threads. + refs #1683 + +* Fix a bug in the reconfigure API related to adhering to shared cache quotas. + refs #1712 #1713 + +* Fix a bug in WiredTiger statistics where we weren't recording overflow + record statistics. + refs #1520 #1703 #1711 + +* Several enhancements to eviction of large pages including: + - Don't do forced eviction of a page if it is the current walk point. + - Don't update the read generation on page in if it's set to oldest. + - Clear the walk positions before the eviction server sleeps. + - Reverse the direction of the LRU walk regularly. + - Add all pages that would block to the eviction queue. + - If evicting dirty pages use the worker threads not the server. + refs #1706 + +* Use raw mode when dumping indices. + Refs #1709. + +* Fix a bug where we could race opening files while a WT_CONNECTION::close is + in progress. + refs SERVER-17319 + +* Fix a bug in LSM where snapshot transaction updates could have the wrong + visibility check applied. Leading to invalid updates. + refs #1641 #1701 #1702 + +* Fix a bug in checkpoint where it could get an EBUSY return unnecessarily. + refs #1404 #1589 #1705 + +* Fix a bug when writing a page from memory to disk (reconciling). We could + overwrite the end of a temporary buffer in some cases. + refs 1697 1699 + +* Sometimes we would choose a sub-optimal layout for on disk pages when + writing them out from memory. + refs #1699 + +* Improve the performance of in-memory lookups by making the content of the + page structure more cache friendly. + + WiredTiger release 2.5.1, 2015-03-07 ------------------------------------ |
