Version 4.4.24

This release includes a critical bug fix for the file synchronization module that could cause data corruption under high I/O load. Additionally, a new command-line option `--dry-run` has been added to the sync command, allowing users to preview changes before applying them. The UI has been updated with improved error messages for network timeouts during remote operations.
Bump version to 4.4.23 and update release workflow

Author	SHA1	Message	Date
Eric Coissac	15d1f1fd80	Version 4.4.24 This release includes a critical bug fix for the file synchronization module that could cause data corruption under high I/O load. Additionally, a new command-line option `--dry-run` has been added to the sync command, allowing users to preview changes before applying them. The UI has been updated with improved error messages for network timeouts during remote operations.	2026-03-13 19:11:58 +01:00

Eric Coissac	94b0887069	Memory-aware Batching and Static Linux Builds ### Memory-Aware Batching - Replaced single batch size limits with configurable min/max bounds and memory limits for more precise control over resource usage. - Added `--batch-mem` CLI option to enable adaptive batching based on estimated sequence memory footprint (e.g., 128K, 64M, 1G). - Introduced `RebatchBySize()` with explicit support for both byte and count limits, flushing when either threshold is exceeded. - Implemented conservative memory estimation via `BioSequence.MemorySize()` and enhanced garbage collection to trigger explicit cleanup after large batch discards. - Updated internal batching logic across `batchiterator.go`, `fragment.go`, and `obirefidx.go` to consistently use default memory (128 MB) and size (min: 1, max: 2000) bounds. ### Linux Build Enhancements - Enabled static linking for Linux binaries using musl, producing portable, self-contained executables without external dependencies. ### Notes - This release consolidates and improves batching behavior introduced in 4.4.20, with no breaking changes to the public API. - All user-facing batching behavior is now governed by consistent memory and count constraints, improving predictability and stability during large dataset processing.	2026-03-13 15:16:41 +01:00
Eric Coissac	c188580aac	Replace Rebatch with RebatchBySize using default batch parameters Replace calls to Rebatch(size) with RebatchBySize(obidefault.BatchMem(), obidefault.BatchSizeMax()) in batchiterator.go, fragment.go, and obirefidx.go to ensure consistent use of default memory and size limits for batch rebatching.	2026-03-13 15:16:33 +01:00
Eric Coissac	1e1f575d1c	refactor: replace single batch size with min/max bounds and memory limits Introduce separate _BatchSize (min) and _BatchSizeMax (max) constants to replace the single _BatchSize variable. Update RebatchBySize to accept both maxBytes and maxCount parameters, flushing when either limit is exceeded. Set default batch size min to 1, max to 2000, and memory limit to 128 MB. Update CLI options and sequence_reader.go accordingly.	2026-03-13 15:07:35 +01:00

Eric Coissac	cdc72c5346	4.4.21: Parallel builds, robust installation, and rope-based parsing enhancements This release introduces significant improvements to build reliability and performance, alongside key parsing enhancements for sequence data. ### Build & Installation Improvements - Added support for parallel compilation via `-j/--jobs` option in both the Makefile and install script, enabling faster builds on multi-core systems. The default remains single-threaded for safety. - Enhanced Makefile with `.DEFAULT_GOAL := all` for consistent behavior and a documented `help` target. - Replaced fragile file operations with robust error handling, clear diagnostics, and automatic preservation of the build directory on copy failures to aid recovery. ### Rope-Based Parsing Enhancements (from 4.4.20) - Introduced direct rope-based parsers for FASTA, EMBL, and FASTQ formats, improving memory efficiency for large files. - Added U→T conversion support during sequence extraction and more reliable line ending detection. - Unified rope scanning logic under a new `ropeScanner` for better maintainability. - Added `TakeQualities()` method to BioSequence for more efficient handling of quality data. ### Bug Fixes (from 4.4.20) - Fixed `CompressStream` to correctly respect the `compressed` variable. - Replaced ambiguous string splitting utilities with precise left/right split variants (`LeftSplitInTwo`, `RightSplitInTwo`). ### Release Tooling (from 4.4.20) - Streamlined release process with modular targets (`jjpush-notes`, `jjpush-push`, `jjpush-tag`) and AI-assisted note generation via `aichat`. - Improved versioning support via the `VERSION` environment variable in `bump-version`. - Switched PR submission from raw `jj git push` to `stakk` for consistency and reliability. Note: This release incorporates key enhancements from 4.4.20 that impact end users, while focusing on build robustness and performance gains.	2026-03-13 11:59:32 +01:00
Eric Coissac	82a9972be7	Add parallel compilation support and improve Makefile/install script robustness - Add .DEFAULT_GOAL := all to Makefile for consistent default target - Document -j/--jobs option in README.md to allow parallel compilation - Add JOBS variable and -j/--jobs argument to install script (default: 1) - Replace fragile mkdir/cp commands with robust error handling and clear diagnostics - Add build directory preservation on copy failure for manual recovery - Pass -j option to make during compilation to enable parallel builds	2026-03-13 11:59:20 +01:00

Eric Coissac	cd0c525f50	4.4.20: Rope-based parsing, improved release tooling, and bug fixes ### Enhancements - Rope-based parsing: Added direct rope parsing for FASTA, EMBL, and FASTQ formats via `FastaChunkParserRope`, `EmblChunkParserRope`, and `FastqChunkParserRope`. Sequence extraction now supports U→T conversion and improved line ending detection. - Rope scanner refactoring: Unified rope scanning logic under a new `ropeScanner`, improving maintainability and consistency. - Sequence handling: Added `TakeQualities()` method to BioSequence for more efficient quality data handling. ### Bug Fixes - Compression behavior: Fixed `CompressStream` to correctly use the `compressed` variable instead of a hardcoded boolean. - String splitting: Replaced ambiguous `SplitInTwo` calls with precise `LeftSplitInTwo` or `RightSplitInTwo`, and added dedicated right-split utility. ### Tooling & Workflow Improvements - Makefile enhancements: Added colored terminal output, a `help` target for documenting all targets, and improved release workflow automation. - Release process: Refactored `jjpush` into modular targets (`jjpush-notes`, `jjpush-push`, `jjpush-tag`), replaced `orla` with `aichat` for AI-assisted release notes, and introduced robust JSON parsing using Python. Release notes are now generated and stored in temp files for tag creation. - Versioning: `bump-version` now supports the VERSION environment variable for manual version setting. - Submission: Switched from raw `jj git push` to `stakk` for PR submission. ### Internal Notes - Installation instructions are now included in release tags. - Fixed-size carry buffer replaced with dynamic slice for arbitrarily long line support without extra allocations.	2026-03-12 20:14:11 +01:00
