Release Notes

Mempool Optimizations

Optimized mempool management to lower the CPU usage.

Misc

Re-encrypt/regenerate all macaroon DB root keys on ChangePassword/GenerateNewRootKey respectively.

Channel Link Bug Fix

If we detect the remote link is inactive, we'll now tear down the connection in addition to stopping the link's statemachine. If we're persistently connected with the peer, then this'll force a reconnect, which may restart things and help avoid certain force close scenarios.

Consistent Contract Resolution

If lnd decides to go to chain for an HTLC, it will now always ensure the HTLC is fully swept on the outgoing link. Prior logic would avoid sweeping due to negative yield, but combined with other inputs, the HTLC will usually be positive yield.
