 # Cosmos SDK v0.45.0 Release Notes
 
-Cosmos SDK v0.45.0 is a logical continuation of the v0.44.\* series, but brings a couple of state- and API-breaking changes requested by the community.
+This release introduces bug fixes and improvements on the Cosmos SDK v0.45 series:
 
-### State-Breaking Changes
+Highlights
++ Added the missing `iavl-cache-size` config parameter parsing to set a desired IAVL cache size. The default value is way to small for big chains, and causes OOM failures.
++ Added a check in `x/upgrade` module's `BeginBlock` preventing accidental binary downgrades
++ Fix: the `/cosmos/tx/v1beta1/txs/{hash}` endpoint returns correct return code (404) for a non existing tx.
 
-There are few important changes in **gas consumption**, which improve the gas economics:
+See the [Cosmos SDK v0.45.1  Changelog](https://github.com/cosmos/cosmos-sdk/blob/v0.45.1/CHANGELOG.md) for the exhaustive list of all changes and check other fixes in 0.45.x release series.
 
-- We now charge gas in two new places: on `.Seek()` even if there are no entries, and for the key length (on top of the value length).
-- When block gas limit is exceeded, we consume the maximum gas possible (to charge for the performed computation). We also fixed the bug when the last transaction in a block exceeds the block gas limit, it returns an error result, but the tx is actually committed successfully.

-Finally, a small improvement in gov, we increased the maximum proposal description size from 5k characters to 10k characters.
 
-### API-Breaking Changes
-
-- The `BankKeeper` interface has a new `HasSupply` method to ensure that input denom actually exists on chain.
-- The `CommitMultiStore` interface contains a new `SetIAVLCacheSize` method for a configurable IAVL cache size.
-- `AuthKeeper` interface in `x/auth` now includes a function `HasAccount`.
-- Moved `TestMnemonic` from `testutil` package to `testdata`.
-
-
-Finally, when using the `SetOrder*` functions in simapp, e.g. `SetOrderBeginBlocker`, we now require that all modules be present in the function arguments, or else the node panics at startup. We also added a new `SetOrderMigration` function to set the order of running module migrations.
-
-### Improvements
-
-- Speedup improvements (e.g. speedup iterator creation after delete heavy workloads, lower allocations for `Coins.String()`, reduce RAM/CPU usage inside store/cachekv's `Store.Write`) are included in this release.
-- Upgrade Rosetta to v0.7.0 .
-- Support in-place migration ordering.
-- Copied and updated `server.GenerateCoinKey` and `server.GenerateServerCoinKey` functions to the `testutil` package. These functions in `server` package are marked deprecated and will be removed in the next release. In the `testutil.GenerateServerCoinKey` version we  added support for custom mnemonics in in-process testing network.
