    Parano1d v2.0.4 Performance Release

    Optional upgrade · No consensus changes

    This release focuses on reducing node resource usage and retiring obsolete proof machinery while preserving independent verification from genesis.

    P2P performance

    • 72% lower average CPU usage under comparable mainnet peer load
    • 1.66× faster HistoryStep verification under live peer load
    • About 98% less CPU use in the local retained object serving benchmark
    • Bounded digest cache for 64 objects with concurrent request coalescing
    • Full native verification remains in place for incoming objects, blocks and proofs
    • 215 P2P tests passed

    Legacy proof retirement

    • Old HistoryStep matrices removed from release binaries and input archives
    • History before v2 verified through retirement certificates under independently pinned keys
    • Retirement proof included in the node binary for synchronization through existing v2.0.3 peers
    • Smaller node binaries across all platforms by removing the old matrices
    • Mainnet cold sync and restart passed on four CPUs with an 8 GiB memory limit

    Security review

    October attack review updated. The v2 soundness certificate was reproduced unchanged, retaining its NIST PQC Category 1 assessment under the published certificate conditions.

    Updating

    Install and start normally. Existing databases, wallet keys, receipts and contract evidence are preserved. Nodes running v2.0.3 remain compatible.
