v18.2.0

This release is a stability release mostly aimed at improving performance of captive core and network overall.

Stability improvements

• Populate mEntryCache, performance improvement
• Prevent mSyncingLedgers from growing indefinitely when out of sync, lowering memory consumptions while catching up.
• Increment iterator before break, that would sometimes update database entries multiple time while applying buckets.
• Clean up MultiOrderBook when offer is removed - improving memory usage a little bit.
• Query optimization for InMemoryLedgerTxn, restoring proper performance for captive core instances.
• Update the logic in LogSlowExecution to correctly count dropped messages
• Check test tx meta in GitHub CI. Improve detection of protocol level bugs in tests.
• Move to FMT_STRING in production code, catches format errors at compile time.
• Fix libc++ versions in Dockerfile.testing, fixing link issues in container.
• Fix passive flag xdr comment.
• add a few updates to docs related to meta ingestion with captive-core
• properly convert some enum values when printing json, could crash in some situations
• Check for DB file existence in captive core fixing a potential race condition on startup.
• [Enable docker-from-docker inside devcontainer]

New features

• Dampen arb flooding, by favoring transactions that are both higher fee and submitted first (only when identified as “arbitrage traffic”, other transactions are still flooded exclusively based on fee).
