-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE----- Hash: SHA256 The Lucene PMC is pleased to announce the release of Apache Lucene 9.6.0.
Apache Lucene is a high-performance, full-featured search engine library written entirely in Java. It is a technology suitable for nearly any application that requires structured search, full-text search, faceting, nearest-neighbor search across high-dimensionality vectors, spell correction or query suggestions. This release contains numerous bug fixes, optimizations, and improvements, some of which are highlighted below. The release is available for immediate download at: <https://lucene.apache.org/core/downloads.html> ### Lucene 9.6.0 Release Highlights: * Introduce a new KeywordField for simple and efficient filtering, sorting and faceting. * Add support for Java 20 foreign memory API. If exactly Java 19 or 20 is used, MMapDirectory will mmap Lucene indexes in chunks of 16 GiB (instead of 1 GiB) and indexes closed while queries are running can no longer crash the JVM. * Improved performance for TermInSetQuery, PrefixQuery, WildcardQuery and TermRangeQuery * Lower memory usage for BloomFilteringPostingsFormat * Faster merges for HNSW indexes * Improvements to concurrent indexing throughput under heavy load * Correct equals implementation in SynonymQuery * 'explain' is now implemented on TermAutomatonQuery Please read CHANGES.txt for a full list of new features and changes: <https://lucene.apache.org/core/9_6_0/changes/Changes.html> -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- iQIzBAEBCAAdFiEEgdPrBAi04esQr0Q7pPTIhrKbwvQFAmRbTS8ACgkQpPTIhrKb wvRUGRAAo3nusFLL2Zlm9xcyYsleOSoNti0rzMASr00Sy4HyyopyicrMB6iRO+Dx nWczylqdwKedMMIraofKM7CpBnjYfaMmJ/8L6cOStdb3x1EmpDbzR5fxu9OB5nn7 rU/PuutG4e7I6rpeupBlqFAEbNXDme5QUm40j/7QvD+v+lc7kC8WCxij8/F0YJ5v YN/jkuTat8m8/kIWl+kYTdSykf0UTUvU0LH/yfVgnszcUSM5ryCleAinYJ2yuC1K 23KqYCsSRI/v5R6Cq1OQG2EUMC4y9vL4J6ZDpPMCsC4Pb+6Fnx9AAxoqmcsJyQZo ZkiQsSNcKeLG6Og01rG50co9WDda1rj8zBkhtDaTe3kNHllVM/QxdZj9yxnAOFqR 9WJyMA2uzlDN5GCGl0VGxS2PVNJN1Pu0LIOBpYoad0Zl890qmxW7Yt0LcA8Jh9ZR nwy1qiR4+vRlaDBbMIuHeBtaYK6KNuZZXA3d2pbC7IkfZ+VprpVm59CfDqNr/h13 mpDFKOmdCikk98Myxeyq90c9dmhoKw7/sPIAJXXOEpAeqeH0i40DCI2yvkbHZXuY k+igq47S471IHTs33GZhsqT6254r52F3aIeqTdbr2DU5d2an6VkLREfb4kL+A/YX xgTOAWKXFxcjk+rC6ETGUwFlJ5OWBT41U1LxHCYSn6NdhQcCvqk= =x5Lr -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
