Changelogs for 4.5.x
====================
+.. changelog::
+ :version: 4.5.0-rc1
+ :released: 25th of June 2021
+
+ This is the first release candidate for version 4.5.0 of the Authoritative Server.
+ This release contains a ton of improvements and bug fixes compared to 4.4, but very few user visible changes.
+
+ The one notable feature is the 'zone cache', which allows PowerDNS to keep a list of zones in memory, updated periodically.
+ With this cache, PowerDNS can avoid hitting the database with queries for unknown domains.
+ In some setups, and some attack scenarios, this can make a serious performance difference.
+
+ Since 4.5.0-beta1, the zone cache is enabled by default.
+
+ Please make sure to read the :doc:`upgrade notes <../upgrading>` before upgrading.
