Automatically use Tor hidden services
-------------------------------------
Starting with Tor version 0.2.7.1 it is possible, through Tor's control socket
API, to create and destroy 'ephemeral' hidden services programmatically.
Bitcoin Core has been updated to make use of this.

I understand that this brings no benefit to those of us who are already using tor, correct? "Using tor" like in:

This feature could be of more use in the future, especially if individual nodes will run 'dual stack' i.e. on clearnet and through Tor.
I've started a thread on that basis here: https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/how-to-guide-set-up-tor-on-linux-ubuntu-and-connect-bitcoin-1374919

edit.... why there is still not the digital sign for the exe? it's not good when i click on the exe and it say that is not safe, it can discourage newbie...
digital sign cost like hundred dollars, not so much
Not sure what you mean that it isn't signed. It looks signed to me. digital sign cost like hundred dollars, not so much
Memory pool limiting
--------------------
[…] Whenever a transaction would cause the mempool to exceed
its maximum size, the transaction that (along with in-mempool descendants) has
the lowest total feerate (as a package) will be evicted and the node's effective
minimum relay feerate will be increased to match this feerate plus the initial
minimum relay feerate.

minimum relay feerate.
Do we get any kind of information in the log when this happens? Eg. something like "mempool reached max size, evicting 2 transactions, effective minimum relay fee is now 0.00001200 BTC".

Do you have to re-download the entire blockchain to upgrade from 0.11.2 to 0.12.0
No.
Good, don't know if I could face that shit another time.

Does it open much quicker than the last release? Sick to death of occasionally getting 'Activating Best Chain' & not opening for literally sometimes 15 minutes or more.
Yeah I actually just made a thread about this. The startup time is real quick compared to the old version. I had no "Activating Best Chain" for an hour and the verification process was fast, now im syncing the blockchain and unfortunately the download speed has not increased for me too much, but at least now I can open the software rather quick.Do you have to re-download the entire blockchain to upgrade from 0.11.2 to 0.12.0

All great improvements and new features, but it lacks the one we need the most, moar transactions!
gz! great release with great new features! Keep the good work guys
Anyone know when we will have and a ubuntu package in ppa?

Core team did a really fine job with this release... Updating my node while writing this
Congratulations everyone. Keep up the hard work.
I'm now running it. Upgrade was painless after I had backed up the blockchain.
Now to play with it. Should I disable SPV peers?
Now to play with it. Should I disable SPV peers?
Great job to all, well done. i just fired it up. Many Thanks 
They removed the --with-libressl build option.
Wow! It looks good, but I don't understand all the changes.
This might help:Quote
- (up to) 7x Faster Signature Validation
- Ability to Limit Upload Traffic
- Crash Prevention via Memory Pool Limits
- Option to Send Transactions That Can Be Fee-Boosted
- Improved Rules for Transaction Relaying
- Automatic Usage of Tor When it’s Running
- Ability for Apps to Subscribe to Notifications With ZeroMQ
- Massively Reduced Disk Usage for Wallets (pruning)
- Much Faster Block Assembly for Miners
Wow! It looks good, but I don't understand all the changes. I'll upgrade and run it without pruning. I was also thinking of blocking SPV peers - is this a good idea?
Is this the first version with opt-in RBF ? From which version SegWit will come ?
segwit is scheduled for april, and before the halving all the features will kick in

Yes.From which version SegWit will come ?
Segwit will come in 0.12.x. I'm assuming that it will be the next version (unless some things need to be fixed sooner). Jump to:
