  • segfault could occur if exit() or quit() were called asynchronously

  • pythonmonkey could not be installed on Windows if cargo was not installed beforehand

• performance improvements:

  • improved memory-use, particularly regarding python strings passed to JavaScript
  • increased the maximum JavaScript garbage-collected heap size to the maximum allowed (4 GB)

• other:

  • pythonmonkey now ships pre-built arm64 wheels
