# Change Log
|
||||
|
||||
## Version 0.4.1 - 2021-03-13
|
||||
|
||||
- [fix] Linking against libarchive was fixed so that it also
|
||||
works for shared library builds. (fixes github #36)
|
||||
|
||||
- [perf] GCC builds have traditionally been much slower than
|
||||
Clang builds, though it was unclear why that was the case.
|
||||
It turns out the reason is simply that CMake defaults to
|
||||
`-O3` optimization, which is known to cause performance
|
||||
regressions in some cases. The build has been changed to
|
||||
*always* build with `-O2` when doing an optimized GCC build.
|
||||
The Clang build is unaffected. (fixes github #14)
|
||||
|
||||
- [perf] The segmenting code now uses a bloom filter to discard
|
||||
unsuccessful matches as early and quickly as possible. While
|
||||
this only gives a minor speedup when using a single lookback
|
||||
block, as you increase the number of lookback blocks speed is
|
||||
barely affected whereas before it would slow down significantly.
|
||||
The bloom filter size (relative to the number of values) can be
|
||||
tuned by using `--bloom-filter-size`, though increasing it any
|
||||
further from the default is likely not going to make a difference.
|
||||
|
||||
- [perf] Nilsimsa similarity computation has been improved to
|
||||
make use of different instruction sets depending on the CPU
|
||||
architecture, speeding up the process of ordering files by
|
||||
similarity by almost a factor of 2.
|
||||
|
||||
- [doc] Added comparison with `lrzip`, `zpaq`. Updated `wimlib`
|
||||
comparison.
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
## Version 0.4.0 - 2021-03-06
|
||||
|
||||
- [feature] New `dwarfsextract` tool that allows extracting a file
