Bitcoin Core 0.9.3 rc1 has been released

[laanwj]

rc2 has been uploaded last weekend to https://bitcoin.org/bin/0.9.3/test/, with some further fixes in network and memory behaviour

Code:

- Remove a useless millisleep in socket handler
- Stricter memory limits on CNode
- Better orphan transaction handling
- Add `-maxorphantx=<n>` and `-maxorphanblocks=<n>` options for control over the maximum orphan transactions and blocks

how to upgrade on ubuntu when stable version released? I could just do "apt-get upgrade bitcoin"?

You will have to wait for the repo [1] to be updated. AFAIK the person looking after it does so pretty fast.

The last time it took ~ 2 months.

Imma test it out.

Running rc2 for a week, and rc1 for a month before that. Seems solid. Resource usage looks unchanged from 0.9.2.

Please report that issue including more details (perhaps also debug.log) here or over at https://github.com/bitcoin/bitcoin/issues.

Thanks,

RC stands for Release Canditate. If you need the very latest you will have to look on github.

0.9.2.1 is the current release.

The ppa is now updated to 9.3 already, but it's not announced yet on the bitcoin.org page?
