v1.17.5: Grav-Torque Pad (v1.17.5)

Compare Source

This is a maintenance release with accumulated bug fixes and improvements, and is recommended for all users. It continues the implementation work for the upcoming Amsterdam hardfork.

A few things worth highlighting:

• The default GOGC has changed from 20 to 50, trading a higher memory peak for less GC overhead. Set --gogc=20 to keep the old behavior.
• Pebble v2 is now supported as a key-value store backend. Pebble v2 is used when Geth is bootstrapped from scratch, and falls back to Pebble v1 for a pre-existing database. Run geth db pebble-upgrade to explicitly upgrade a legacy Pebble v1 database to v2.

• For EIP-7843, the slot number is now set for the pending block post-Amsterdam (#​34792, #​35036)
