Thanks for these updates @eugene!would it be possible to also post release notes for the minor updates? (x.x. 1>x.x.2)
An “Edit” or addendum to the original post would be sufficient I think, no entire new post would be needed.

Edit: posting because it is not clear to me what changed from 8.0.1 to 8.0.2

I believe it was framework layer improvements of the code that were causing sub-optimal performance, not connected to any official bugs which we could link.

Thanks! I think it would be great if that sentence (without the “I think” if this is indeed correct) could have been posted as an edit in the original post. For bonus points for me: add the potential risk of the issue (if no bug has been logged yet)
