Full changelog

Note

The startup time might be a little longer for the first launch due to a big migration included in 7.1.0, which includes a complete rebuild of the database.

In my testing, the migration took ~20s for databases with 1 million rows. So, this is probably not a practical concern. I would expect it to take <1s for most installations.
