1 plocate 1.0.5, October 17th, 2020
3 - Implement the -b/--basename option.
8 plocate 1.0.4, October 16th, 2020
10 - Fix a bug where plocate.db would be evicted from the OS cache
11 (the behavior was only meant for benchmarking).
13 - On fallback linear scans, such as regexes or very short patterns,
14 use multithreading to speed up the search.
17 plocate 1.0.3, October 15th, 2020
19 - Portability fixes; plocate will now compile and run on non-x86
20 architectures (although without SIMD optimizations). Note that
21 plocate.db is not portable across endians, but this shouldn't
22 be a big problem in practice.
24 - Filenames are now compressed using a shared zstd dictionary,
25 which makes plocate.db ~7% smaller, and linear scans ~20% faster.
26 This makes plocate-build ~20% slower, though, since it needs to
27 scan through mlocate.db in a special pre-pass to sample filenames
30 This changes the dictionary format (from version 0 to version 1),
31 but the new plocate can still read version 0 dictionaries,
32 so the transition should be seamless.
37 plocate 1.0.2, October 12th, 2020
42 plocate 1.0.1, October 11th, 2020
44 - Unbreak linear scanning (for very short patterns, or regexes).
47 plocate 1.0.0, October 11th, 2020
