v2.7.0-beta.1

Features

• Update Go to 1.26.0.

Added consensus pruning

Adds a new experimental config option to enable consensus pruning. With Utreexo, it is no longer required to store every block to fully validate new blocks. This option limits the number of blocks the host will store in its consensus database reducing the size of the consensus database on disk. It is currently defaulted to off. We recommend no less than one day of blocks to ensure protection for deep reorgs (144 blocks on mainnet).

Fixes

• Added config option to disable Merkle proof cache for low-resource systems.
• Fixed revisions and resolutions in the same block causing contracts to be considered "active" forever.
• Remove backup step size limit and don't vacuum backup to speed it up.
• Update coreutils to v0.21.1

v2.6.0

Features

• Extend settings with syncerIngressLimit and syncerEgressLimit to set bandwidth rate limits on the syncer.
• Record syncer bandwidth stats.
• Register an alert if funding a contract formation, renewal or refresh fails.
• Track disk I/O in metrics.

Cache sector subtrees to reduce disk IO for partial reads.

This change reduces the minimum read size from 4MiB to 4KiB when reading segments of a sector.

Warning: this cache drastically reduces disk IO, but increases the hostd database by 8GiB per TiB of data stored.

Add support for instant sync

New users can sync instantly using hostd --instant. When instant syncing, the hostd node initializes using a Utreexo-based checkpoint and can immediately validate blocks from that point forward without replaying the whole chain state. The state is extremely compact and committed in block headers, making this initialization both quick and secure. Learn more

The wallet is required to only have v2 history to use instant syncing.

Fixes

• Add monitoring and rate limiting for quic.
• Fixed a panic when contracts are rejected.
• Fixed an issue with the backup endpoint locking up the host.
• Periodically prune stored_sectors table.
• Properly return decoding error when decoding slice in decodable.Scan.
• Sync sector to disk after writing instead of tracking changed volumes.
• Update core dependency to v0.19.0 and coreutils dependency v0.20.0.

v2.6.0-beta.4

v2.6.0-beta.2

Features

• Record syncer bandwidth stats.
• Register an alert if funding a contract formation, renewal or refresh fails.
• Track disk I/O in metrics.

Add support for instant sync

New users can sync nearly instantly. With hostd --instant, the hostd node doesn’t replay the entire blockchain. Instead it initializes from any Utreexo-based checkpoint and immediately begins validating blocks from that point forward. The state is extremely compact and committed in block headers, making this initialization both quick and secure. Learn more
