Release Note

The O(1) Labs team is proud to announce that we're graduating the 1.2.1 Beta to Stable (as 1.2.2 with a new commit hash just to make sure apt consistently selects the correct package). This release includes the async VRF and responsiveness fixes, as well as some additional UX improvements and some retry logic for the uptime service. 1.2.2 includes the more comprehensive changes to improve graphQL/networking responsiveness as promised, as well as a new async VRF computation process to keep VRF evaluations off of the main thread (especially for block producers with many delegates). These changes have been very effective on Devnet and Mainnet and we feel confident urging all users to upgrade from 1.2.0.
If you run into any issues, please include Release: 1.2.2 in the name of any issues you create. Please report any issues you encounter here or join the Discussion!
