Hi tor-dev. Sorry for the cross post but while tor-relays@ is the perfect spot to announce Nyx, tor-dev@ is the traditional place to unveil Stem.

I'm pleased to announce Stem 1.6, the accumulation of a full year of improvements for our controller library...

Besides features such as descriptor creation and ed25519 support the main highlight for this release is performance tuning. Descriptor parsing is ~25% faster and low-level control socket handling got some special attention.

Cheers! -Damian
