List: openbsd-announceSubject: OpenBGPD 9.0 releasedFrom: Claudio Jeker <claudio () openbsd ! org>Date: 2025-12-30 13:23:11We have released OpenBGPD 9.0, which will be arriving in theOpenBGPD directory of your local OpenBSD mirror soon.This release includes the following changes to the previous release: * Rewrite the Adj-RIB-Out handling to be more memory efficent and faster. For large IXP route server deployments a reduction in memory usage of more than 50% should be feasible. * Process UPDATE messages in two phases: first update Adj-RIB-In, Loc-RIB, and FIB, then process all the Adj-RIB-Out tables. This significantly reduces the latency since updating all the Adj-RIB-Out tables could take a fair amount of time. * Introduce CH hash tables - a scalable hash map implementation that boosts performance through improved cache locality. * Introduce new metrics that track the amount of time spent in various parts of the main event loop of the route decision engine. * Fix various non-criticial things uncovered by Coverity scanner.
