Version 0.9.1
Released on 2014-02-01.
This release contains quite a few internal performance optimisations in terms of increased throughput and reduced memory consumption. Work is continuing on the documentation and supporting materials such as getting started guides.
The big new feature added in this release is the new RxJava module, that provides a reactive alternative to Ratpack's Background API, namely RxBackground (see link for usage examples). This makes dealing with non trivial blocking data flows trivially easy and avoids nested callbacks.
There are breaking API changes in this release, as there is likely to be in each release until 1.0 final.
