2017-02-03Store messages for 'rex' and 'error_logger' off heapBjörn Gustavsson
Performance for processes that receive huge amounts of messages can be increased by storing the incoming messages outside the heap (that avoids copying the message in a garbage collection). Two OTP processes that are known to receive many messages are 'rex' (used by 'rpc') and 'error_logger'.

* josevalim/atu8-chunk/PR-1078/OTP-14178: Add new AtU8 beam chunk
2017-01-30Add new AtU8 beam chunkJosé Valim
The new chunk stores atoms encoded in UTF-8. beam_lib has also been modified to handle the new 'utf8_atoms' attribute while the 'atoms' attribute may be a missing chunk from now on. The binary_to_atom/2 BIF can now encode any utf8 binary with up to 255 characters. The list_to_atom/1 BIF can now accept codepoints higher than 255 with up to 255 characters (thanks to Björn Gustavsson).

2016-11-29Improve caching in disk_logRichard Carlsson
Avoid starting timers for flushing when the written data is empty or larger than the max cache size. Previously, a single huge write to an empty cache would be put in the cache until the next write or the timer event. Also increase the cache size from 16K to 64K.

2016-11-21Remove vestiges of watchdog support in heartMagnus Henoch
Hardware watchdog support was removed from heart in R13A, but there were still some vestiges in the code and the documentation. - Remove mentions of the HW_WD_DISABLE variable, as it's no longer used. - Remove the HEART_BEAT_BOOT_DELAY variable, as it was only used for the hardware watchdog.
