New in This Release

This release introduces the following changes since version 3.3.2:

• lbe: systems with Solidigm/Intel D5-P5316 drives may experience higher than expected write latency after several drive write cycles. This is due to write-unit markers increasing internal drive write amplification. In systems with two kinds of drives, lbe can now write write-unit markers to only a subset of the drives. Contact Lightbits Support if you use Solidigm/Intel D5-P5316 drives and are experiencing higher than expected write latency.
