The previous release vere-v2.7 introduced a regression presenting as a significant disk read increase when swapping. This issue was caused by a flag meant only for development builds being set in the release build, causing every snapshot write to do an overly paranoid check on snapshot integrity.
A few days ago we discovered a performance issue when a remote scry publisher gets many simultaneous requests, as often happens during OTA updates. This performance bug caused the publisher to do 500x more work than necessary. We have now released vere-v2.9 to fix the issue.
We have now released vere-v2.8 to fix the issue.
