Jun 1, 2025June 2025 performance summary for cvat-ai/cvat: Focused on stability, data reliability, and build hygiene, delivering targeted fixes and enhancements across the data plane, caching, and observability. Key outcomes include stabilizing Grafana/Clickhouse data source connections by pinning the plugin version in Docker Compose and Helm, enabling username-scoped Grafana dashboards for more precise data access, improving cache reliability with a Redis-backed shared cache for throttling, and optimizing data handling with Kvrocks cache improvements featuring a maximum item size limit and scheduled auto-compaction. The build workflow was modernized by updating the Golang base image for the smokescreen tool from 1.24.2 to 1.24.4, reducing build risk and improving security. Together, these changes reduce data-source errors, ensure consistent throttling across processes, enable more actionable dashboards, and streamline the CI/build environment, delivering measurable business value in reliability, performance, and observability.
