AI Summary

This release focuses on performance improvements, Rust volume server stability, and Erasure Coding (EC) recovery enhancements. It introduces performance CI infrastructure and optimizes memory usage in the FUSE mount layer.

Key Highlights

Added performance CI for profiling throughput, memory usage, and S3 operations.
Fixed Rust volume server streaming operations to avoid buffering entire files in memory.
Enhanced EC shard recovery logic to handle cases where .ecx indexes exist only on peer servers.
Introduced Prometheus metrics for EC rebuild and reconstruct operations.

New Features

Prometheus metrics for EC rebuild/reconstruct.
S3 support for AWS object form in bucket policies (Principal, NotPrincipal).
Performance CI setup using per-platform builds on native runners.
