We’re excited to announce the release of Stalwart v0.12, a significant milestone that evolves Stalwart from a powerful mail server into a complete, integrated communication and collaboration platform. This release delivers one of the most anticipated features from our community: native support for calendars, contacts, and file storage—all built directly into the server, with no need for third-party integrations.

It's a 0.x release. It makes sense building the intended features first before optimizing heavily. There's no point having an optimized data structure that then falls flat once you need to add new features that brings new requirements to the data structure.

Once they label it 1.x (i.e. feature complete and production ready) I would expect it to be optimized. If it isn't, criticism is warranted.

Stalwart probably aims a bigger infra than mine, i think that is the point.

It aims at both, otherwise it wouldn't ship with sqlite and rocksdb. Stalwarts default is clearly for single node setups and expanding it to clustering takes further steps. So while it supports large scale deployments, it should not be limited to it.

Are we sure they are using semantic versioning?

[-] [email protected] 3 points 5 days ago

We can ask, but the indicators are there:

  • it has roadmap with bigger features that slowly shrinks as they get implemented
  • new versions still bring big reworks (I think this is the third time now that the data structure is being migrated)
  • optimizations happen between the versions
  • benchmarks are still on the horizon
