Below is a list of performance and stability improvements and bug fixes, each with an open source reference:
- UX: misleading error message on logs. Currently, our error message on
scylla_prepare
says “Exception occurred while creating perftune.yaml
“, even if perftune.yaml is already generated, and an error occurred after that. #10575 - Monitoring: When computing moving average rates too early after startup, the rate can be infinite; the cause is sample interval since the system started is too small to generate meaningful results. #4469
- Performance: background reclaim shares were not adjusted in a timely manner.
- Stability: Row cache will miss a row if the upper bound of the population range is evicted and has an adjacent dummy row #11239
- Stability: Accidentally quadratic behavior when a large number of range tombstones is present in a partition has been fixed. #11211
- Stability: Scylla propagates cache hit rate information through gossip, to allow coordinators to send less traffic to a newly started node. It will now spend less effort to do so on large clusters. #5971
- Service Level stability: Fix a race condition between RPC and Service Level creation that may cause some service levels to use the default scheduling group on some nodes. The result can cause a workload using the wrong service level, getting more or less resources than intended, and in extreme cases can cripple some workloads entirely.
