- Fixed critical bugs that could corrupt metadata and cause data loss when renaming collections, along with many stability fixes (null bitmap alignment, text‑match, index leaks, etc.).
- Updated dependencies: Knowhere (sparse vector brute‑force bug), Tantivy (directory removal race), CMake to 3.31.8, and added meta‑saving with transaction limits.
- Improved performance and resource handling, including refined variable‑length type memory usage, load‑config adjustments after QueryCoord restart, and reordered shutdown sequence.
