The following issues are fixed in this release (with an open-source reference, if available):

  • Stability: Batches (as generated by the BATCH statement) are held in the system.batchlog table. As this table can accumulate a lot of tombstones, we now take steps to ensure these tombstones are purged eagerly. This is important for repair, which replays the batch log. #19376
  • Performance: Statements such as SELECT count(*) use an internal map-reduce service to parallelize the query. ScyllaDB no longer does so for single-partition queries as they don’t benefit from it. #19349
  • Performance: If the CPU is busy processing a query, ScyllaDB will let that query complete before starting another one, since several queries using the CPU concurrently on a shard will make all of them slower. There is now an option to allow increasing CPU concurrency on queries for workloads where this helps. #19017
  • Monitoring: storage_proxy: LWT contention metric is not initialized correctly #19654
