http://www.apache.org/dist/couchdb/notes/1.2.0/apache-couchd...

Highlights I like:

* Speed improvements (native JSON parser)

* Autocompaction (no need to create daemons to compact db periodically anymore).

* Snappy compression enabled by default (should reduce db sizes and perhaps provide some speed improvements)

* Added built-in changes feed filter _view. This basically means you can use your view to filter your changes feed.




Does anyone know what language the previous JSON parser was written in...Erlang?


Yup. We used mochijson2.
