Changelog

4.4.7

Added

• An admin endpoint that reports sink pool lag without scraping the metrics port.

Fixed

• Retention skipped the newest log segment when the clock moved backwards.

4.4.6

Added

• A `--dry-run` mode for `basalt compact`.

Fixed

• The admin port ignored the bind address and always listened on all interfaces.
• `basalt status` exited 0 even when the sink pool was stalled.
• Reloading on SIGHUP leaked one file descriptor per topic.

Changed

• Startup recovery is now parallel across topics; on a 16 core box it is roughly 6 times faster.

4.4.5

Added

• Per-topic retention overrides, so one topic can keep events longer than the global default.

Fixed

• The admin port ignored the bind address and always listened on all interfaces.
• The partition planner could double count an event after a crash between fsync and index update.

4.4.4

Added

• Per-topic retention overrides, so one topic can keep events longer than the global default.

Fixed

• Retention skipped the newest log segment when the clock moved backwards.

4.4.3

Added

• Optional zstd compression for the log segment, off by default.

Changed

• `basalt status` output is now stable enough to parse; the old format is still available behind `--legacy`.

4.4.2

Added

• A `--dry-run` mode for `basalt compact`.

4.4.1

Fixed

• A 0-byte log segment left behind by an interrupted write made startup fail instead of being discarded.
• Retention skipped the newest log segment when the clock moved backwards.
• The admin port ignored the bind address and always listened on all interfaces.

4.4.0

Added

• A `--dry-run` mode for `basalt compact`.
• Range requests on the read API, which makes partial replays cheap.

Fixed

• `basalt status` exited 0 even when the partition planner was stalled.
• A 0-byte log segment left behind by an interrupted write made startup fail instead of being discarded.
• Retention skipped the newest log segment when the clock moved backwards.
