Hiawatha 8.3 has been released

23 May 2012, 18:03

Today, Hiawatha 8.3 was released. This new version adds reverse proxy functionality.

FreeBSD 9.0 users might experience a lot of memory usage by Hiawatha. After some research, it appeared to be a bug in FreeBSD's pthread library, not a memory leak in Hiawatha. Thanks to Maks Feltrin for assistance in the research.

Nice new feature; works perfectly so far in my own environment. Debian packages are updated, as usual:

Thanks. What's the difference between the i386 package and i686? Which one should I be using?

That depends on your architecture. What does 'uname -a' say?

Then you can use the i686 package. It's more optimized for your processor.
