Release History

0.2.7

  • Moved accepting into nonblocking per-worker epoll/kqueue listeners with automatic dispatcher fallback.
  • Selected automatic workers from the highest-capacity CPU cluster where platform topology is available.
  • Made cached, memory, buffered-file, and sendfile responses fully resumable through event output state.
  • Removed event hash lookups, repeated quadratic idle scans, pipeline-buffer copies, and disabled access-log work.
  • Rebuilt the cache around worker-local views and immutable reference-counted generations with complete memory accounting.
  • Hardened HTTP/1.1 Host, framing, body-length, and transfer-encoding validation.
  • Added weak representation ETags with If-None-Match precedence.
  • Added normal, open-ended, and suffix byte ranges with 206, 416, and If-Range support.
  • Added Brotli/gzip sidecar negotiation with q-values, variant ETags, encoded ranges, Vary, and 406 handling.
  • Added a complete example JSON configuration, version-consistency checks, and end-to-end protocol coverage.

0.2.6

  • Added prebuilt keep-alive response blobs for cached small-file responses.
  • Added indexed cache lookups and vectored cached-response writes.
  • Added pending nonblocking write state for cached event-worker responses.

  • Reduced noisy logs for normal client disconnects during response body transfer.
