Technical

• Several issues affecting release, such as memory leaks and excessive cache usage in the v1.27 version of the master branch of the main chain, have been resolved.
• In the future, we will mainly focus on the following two issues. First, to stabilize the beacon clock block (designed as a 10s clock block, sometimes fluctuates to 13s under the big network to complete a clock block). Second, to open a large number of transactions for all shards. Optimize the problem of contract blockage in the beacon system.
• In the Tahoe branch (v0.98), the problems introduced by the merging process of multiple versions have been solved. It is now stable.
