New Features 🔥

  • Introduced paradedb.force_merge() which allows you to merge segments into an arbitrary layer size without changing the index’s layer sizes. This is useful for merging into very large segment sizes (e.g. >100MB), because those merges are very expensive and can degrade write throughput if done at insert time.

​
Stability Improvements 💪

  • Fixed an issue where any long-running transaction could prevent segment recycling across all BM25 indexes, which led to increased index size and lowered write throughput. For instance, running a REINDEX CONCURRENTLY on one index could negatively affect other indexes.

  • Fixed an issue where VACUUM could be blocked indefinitely by a previously-cancelled merge.
