Brief Summary

• A neacore update was shipped allowing nodes to change log levels on the fly. Now when a node is experiencing issues users can enter debug mode without having to restart.
• Node performance has been improved by reducing the garbage collection fork limit by 10x (1k to 100).
• A query was removed from NEAR Wallet that resolved an incident associated with the contract helper service. A circuit breaking pattern will be implemented to help prevent future occurences.
• New testing framework workspaces-js v2.0 released!
• NEAR Lake Framework published to crates.io!

Results

• Node Team:

  • Improved performance of NayDuck tests by running a Docker cleanup routine which removes the image upon test completion.
  • Removed old database migration code and only requiring most recent five DB versions. This allows freedom from unnessesary migration support as well as freedom from old data structure definitions. Zulip discussion here
  • Improved error handling with DB migration errors by surfacing meaningful error messages rather than a simple panic.
  • Improved Prometheus metrics by simplifying code and allowing it to be more easily scraped, adding more structure to dropped messages, and exporting a node’s build information.
