10 lei users need to "lei daemon-kill" after installation to load
11 new code. Normal daemons (read-only, and public-inbox-watch)
12 will also need restarts, of course, but there's no
13 backwards-incompatible data format changes so rolling back to
14 older versions is harmless.
18 * lei no longer freezes from inotify/EVFILT_VNODE handling,
19 user interrupts (Ctrl-C), nor excessive errors/warnings
21 * IMAP server fairness improved to avoid excessive blob prefetch
25 * POP3 server support added, use either public-inbox-pop3d or
26 the new public-inbox-netd superserver
28 * public-inbox-netd superserver supporting any combination of HTTP,
29 IMAP, POP3, and NNTP services; simplifying management and allowing
30 more sharing of memory used for various data structures.
32 * public-inbox-httpd and -netd support per-listener .psgi files
34 * SIGHUP reloads TLS certs and keys in addition to config and .psgi files
36 * "lei reindex" command for lei users to update personal index
37 in ~/.local/share/lei/store for search improvements below:
41 These will require --reindex with public-inbox-index and/or
42 public-inbox-extindex for public inboxes.
44 * patchid: prefix search support added to WWW and lei for
45 "git patch-id --stable" support
47 * text inside base-85 binary patches are no longer indexed
48 to avoid false positives
50 * for lei users, "lei reindex" now exists and is required
51 to take advantage of aforementioned indexing changes
53 Performance improvements:
55 * IMAP server startup is faster with many mailboxes when using
56 "public-inbox-extindex --all"
58 * NNTP group listings are also faster with many inboxes when
59 using "public-inbox-extindex --all"
61 * various small opcode and memory usage reductions
