Check implications of Containers.MaximumPriceFactor 1.5 + +When scheduling a container, Arvados now considers using instance types other than the lowest-cost type consistent with the container's resource constraints. If a larger instance is already running and idle, or the cloud provider reports that the optimal instance type is not currently available, Arvados will select a larger instance type, provided the cost does not exceed 1.5x the optimal instance type cost. + +This will typically reduce overall latency for containers and reduce instance booting/shutdown overhead, but may increase costs depending on workload and instance availability. To avoid this behavior, configure @Containers.MaximumPriceFactor: 1.0@. + +h3. Synchronize keepstore and keep-balance upgrades + +The internal communication between keepstore and keep-balance about read-only volumes has changed. After keep-balance is upgraded, old versions of keepstore will be treated as read-only. We recommend upgrading and restarting all keepstore services first, then upgrading and restarting keep-balance. + +h3. Separate configs for MaxConcurrentRequests and MaxConcurrentRailsRequests + The default configuration value @API.MaxConcurrentRequests@ (the number of concurrent requests that will be processed by a single instance of an arvados service process) is raised from 8 to 64. A new configuration key @API.MaxConcurrentRailsRequests@ (default 8) limits the number of concurrent requests processed by a RailsAPI service process.
