Don't think a week is needed, perhaps a day would be in order to let AXB roll this version into his setup and let it run for a little while. I'm running the new db format for two weeks now, and the latest Lua speedups for two days. The reason for the today's rush-in of last-minute changes is that I haven't tested all scenarios previously (backup/restore, with and without Lua) but only concentrated on a steady run. There will always be room for improvements (like testing and improving rubustness when a redis server fails or is restarted). Based on feedback there may just as well be another RC, but nothing major is pending now as far as I can tell to hold back the RC2. Mark
