This is a bug fix release. The main fix is for users on slow storage (USB disks, remote drives), who have seen floods of database is locked errors, UI freezes and failed full scans since 0.64.0. Scans now cause much less lock contention: the artwork worker pauses while a scan runs, and ANALYZE no longer holds the write lock for a long time. It also fixes scans that always failed on 32-bit builds (…
