v6.0.0

What’s New

With the 6.0 release we focused on performance.

New Features

• Added support for SourceLink for improved debugging experience.

Performance Improvements

• Made the serializers and job runners synchronous.
• Batched async operations across the board to reduce latencies and execution times.

Bug Fixes

• Fixed a bug where deep cloning objects (for caching and other operations) could cause dead locks.
• Fixed a timing issue with queue.RunUntilEmpty(). Please note this code path is only intended for unit tests as it can be very expensive to call on some queueing systems like Azure.

Breaking

• Removed ILogger and ILoggerFactory implementations and moved to Microsoft.Logging.Extensions.
• Made the serializers and job runners synchronous. This allowed for faster serialization and job execution.

Please take a look at the change log for a full list of the changes.
