Closing in on GDB 1.0 — recent breakthroughs & what’s next

[estebanrfp]

Hi everyone!

We’ve shipped a string of improvements that bring us right to the doorstep of our 1.0 stable release:

Performance & concurrency: The OPFS persistence layer was re-architected with Transferable Objects and smarter lock handling, giving big wins in load times and multi-tab read concurrency, plus a Web Locks–backed fix for cross-tab write integrity.

Sync hardening: Delta/full sync now travel compressed, with clearer logging and a frozen protocol that keeps behavior predictable while staying security-manager agnostic.

Security & access control: An optional ACL module for node-level permissions landed, alongside safer SM initialization and sequencing.

Network reliability: The GenosRTC signaling layer now starts instantly with proactive relay fallbacks and automatic pruning of unhealthy relays.

These updates focus on stability, correctness, and predictable performance—all foundational for 1.0. We’re now polishing the last edges and validating that the platform is rock-solid for production.

If you want to help: try the latest builds, stress test sync across tabs, and share any rough spots you find. Your feedback will help us land a confident 1.0!

Thanks for being part of the journey. 🎯
