v0.7.6-patch1

Fixes

• Blockifier and Cairo-VM Incompatibility: Resolved a known incompatibility issue between the blockifier and cairo-vm versions greater than 0.8.2.

Details

• Problem: Incompatibility between blockifier and cairo-vm versions greater than 0.8.2, causing excessive memory usage and resulting in Juno process termination.
• Resolution: Downgraded cairo-vm to version 0.8.2. This approach follows the solution implemented by eqlabs/pathfinder (See PR #1437).
• Outcome: Resolved the memory management issue and restored stability to the node.

v0.7.6

Hotfix for class cache behavior.

Fixed

• Class Cache Issue: Ensure the class cache does not serve classes from the future. This update fixes traces for declare transactions whose class has already been cached (#1454 by @omerfirmak).

Full Changelog: v0.7.4...v0.7.5

v0.7.4

This release focuses on infrastructure scalability through enhanced gRPC integration, allowing for more efficient node deployment strategies.

Added

• RemoteDB over gRPC: Implement the ability for Juno nodes to connect to a primary node's database over gRPC, serving RPC requests without the need for syncing themselves. This feature is enabled through new flag: --remote-db, streamlining scalability and reducing overhead. (@omerfirmak in #1353)

Changed

• Error Logging: Reduced noise in logs by preventing the recording of errors not attributable to Juno's own operations. This ensures a clearer logging experience and easier troubleshooting. (@joshklop in #1406)

Usage

To deploy a syncing node that exposes its database over gRPC:

docker run -d \
  --name juno_grpc \
  --network juno-net \
  -p 6064:6064 \
  -v /root/snapshots/juno_mainnet:/var/lib/juno \
  nethermind/juno:v0.7.4 \
  --db-path /var/lib/juno \
  --grpc-host 0.0.0.0 \
  --grpc-port 6064 \
  --grpc

To deploy a node that uses the primary node’s synced database over gRPC:

docker run -d \
  --name juno_from_grpc \
  --network juno-net \
  -p 6065:6065 \
  nethermind/juno:v0.7.4 \
  --http \
  --http-port 6065 \
  --http-host 0.0.0.0 \
  --remote-db juno_grpc:6064

v0.7.3

🎉 Exciting updates have landed in the latest Juno release! Now with support for upcoming Starknet v0.12.3, we've also supercharged RPC performance with a new global class cache, allowing for higher request throughput and optimized resource usage. We've updated blockifier which includes an important wallet integration fix. On top of that, expect new metrics and ongoing enhancements to the P2P layer, among other improvements. Here’s what’s new:

Added

• Support for Starknet v0.12.3
• A global class cache to the VM which enhances overall RPC throughput. (PR by @omerfirmak in 1401
• A new flag, max-vms, to control the maximum number of VM instances for concurrent RPC calls, optimizing resource usage (PR by @omerfirmak in #1378).

Changed

• The blockifier library has been updated, now supporting the query bit in the version field for transactions (PR by @joshklop in #1401).
• Subscription handling has been moved to the synchronizer for improved efficiency (PR by @joshklop in #1373).
• Ongoing enhancements to the P2P layer, including the implementation of a Receipt Handler and Adapter and a new GetBlockBodies feature (PRs by @IronGauntlets in #1352 and by @kirugan in #1359).
• Prometheus metrics have been expanded to include version information, latency on Transaction.Commit(), and read metrics on blockchain operations (PRs by @omerfirmak in #1394, #1396, and #1395).
• Kubernetes pods now have a correctly set GOMAXPROCS setting, aligning performance with CPU resources (PR by @omerfirmak in #1397).
• Fallback to feeder traces for blocks <= 0.12.2 (PR by @omerfirmak in #1405).

Fixed

• Resolved an issue with event emission on sync step failure for more reliable synchronization (PR by @aminsato in #1387).
• Refactored websocket error conditions for improved stability and error handling (PR by @joshklop in #1400).
