- Many small bug fixes and performance improvements not listed.
- The outlier detection ejections_total stats counter has been deprecated and not replaced. Monitor the individual ejections_detected_* counters for the detectors of interest, or ejections_enforced_total for the total number of ejections that actually occurred.
- The outlier detection ejections_consecutive_5xx stats counter has been deprecated in favour of ejections_detected_consecutive_5xx and ejections_enforced_consecutive_5xx.
- The outlier detection ejections_success_rate stats counter has been deprecated in favour of ejections_detected_success_rate and ejections_enforced_success_rate.
