Flavio, I think there are some substantial improvements in some areas, here are few examples of non bug-fix changes:
BOOKKEEPER-841: Bookie should calculate ledgers map writing a new entry log file (Save a lot a read IO on bookie restart with at lot of data stored) BOOKKEEPER-889: BookKeeper client should try not to use bookies with errors/timeouts when forming a new ensemble (Quarantine bookies for a period of time if they are slow/misbehaving) BOOKKEEPER-895: GC ledgers that are no longer a part of the ensemble (Remove extra copies of ledgers already auto-replicated) BOOKKEEPER-894: add command to read ledger entries form shell BOOKKEEPER-892: Bookie sanity test These other changes have no immediate user benefit, but pose the base for further changes: BOOKKEEPER-851: Configurable LedgerStorage implementation BOOKKEEPER-901: Authentication framework (This was just from the changes we submitted from Yahoo branch, I think there are other non-bug fix change since 4.2) Matteo On Mon, Mar 14, 2016 at 3:33 AM Flavio Junqueira <f...@apache.org> wrote: > Thanks, Sijie and Matteo, for working on this.
