New upstream release Skylable SX 2.2 is primarly aimed at improving the performance of the cluster. The most notable areas of improvement are:

• core:

  • Perform background propagation of replicas above 1 (the old behaviour is now available with --replica-wait option)
  • Improve calculation, index usage and maintain cache of frequently computed values

• sxfs:

  • Enable caching of smaller objects for improved latency

• garbage-collector:

  • Improve file deletion and block reservation

• sxsetup:

  • New option --check to perform automatic data integrity check of the local storage
