The first release candidate of PostgreSQL 10.0 is now available for testing.

PostgreSQL 10 has been queuing up improvements to declarative partitioning, logical replication support, an improved parallel query system, SCRAM authentication, performance speed-ups, hash indexes are now WAL, extended statistics, new integrity checking tools, smart connection handling, and many other promising improvements. Our earlier performance tests of Postgre 10 during its beta phase showed some speed-ups over PostgreSQL 9.

PostgreSQL 10. RC1 that is available today has many fixes to partitioning / logical replication / transition tables and other work.

More details via the announcement today at PostgreSQL.org. More release candidates will come until all blocker bugs have been addressed to then usher in the stable 10.0 release.
