New Relic v3.6.8 Release Notes
-
- X-Ray Sessions support
X-Ray Sessions provide more targeted transaction trace samples and thread profiling for web transactions. For full details see our X-Ray sessions documentation at https://newrelic.com/docs/site/xray-sessions.
- Percentiles and Histograms
The Ruby Agent now captures data that provides percentile and histogram views in the New Relic UI.
- CPU metrics re-enabled for JRuby >= 1.7.0
To work around a JRuby bug, the Ruby agent stopped gathering CPU metrics on that platform. With the bug fixed, the agent can gather those metrics again. Thanks Bram de Vries for the contribution!
- Missing Resque transaction traces (3.6.8.168)
A bug in 3.6.8.164 prevented transaction traces in Resque jobs from being communicated back to New Relic. 3.6.8.168 fixes this.
- Retry on initial connect (3.6.8.168)
Failure to contact New Relic on agent start-up would not properly retry. This has been fixed.
- Fix potential memory leak on failure to send to New Relic (3.6.8.168)
3.6.8.164 introduced a potential memory leak when transmission of some kinds of data to New Relic servers failed. 3.6.8.168 fixes this.
