---

Walrus v1.45.2

Mainnet | April 1, 2026 | GitHub

Raises the storage node's RocksDB background threads from 2 to 16 and adds the opt-in garbage_collection.enable_immediate_data_deletion parameter. Also fixes a combined-daemon body size limit that was silently rejecting uploads with 413 errors and adds a walrus info coin CLI subcommand.

Changes

• Increases the number of RocksDB background threads from 2 (RocksDB default) to 16. Can be configured through the config file.
• Add a new configuration parameter garbage_collection.enable_immediate_data_deletion, which defaults to false. When processing a BlobDeleted event, data is only deleted immediately if this parameter is set to true.
• Fixed body size limit in combined daemon mode (running publisher and aggregator together). The limit was set 1024x too small, causing uploads to be silently rejected with 413 Payload Too Large. Standalone publisher mode was not affected.
• Added a new info subcommand to the CLI. walrus info coin provides the StructTag of the walrus coin given the CLI's configured context.

---

Walrus v1.26.3

Mainnet | June 5, 2025 | GitHub

Rate-limits concurrent blob recovery during node recovery and adds multi-URL Sui RPC configuration. Includes the breaking change where services bind to the configured address instead of always to 0.0.0.0.

Changes

• feat: rate limit concurrent blob recovery during node recovery
• Use the metrics and REST API address from the configuration file instead of always binding to 0.0.0.0. Note that this bugfix may break some setups that relied on the previous incorrect behavior. To get the old behavior, set the metrics_address and rest_api_address to 0.0.0.0:<port> explicitly.
• Increase default value of http2_max_pending_accept_reset_streams parameter to disable warnings from the h2 crate.
• Reduce verbosity levels of problems with metrics and config sync from ERROR to WARN.
• Allow specifying Sui RPC URL in the configuration file in addition to the CLI option.
• Use the metrics address specified through the CLI options file instead of always binding to 0.0.0.0. Note that this bugfix may break some setups that relied on the previous incorrect behavior. To get the old behavior, use --metrics-address 0.0.0.0:<port> when starting the aggregator.
• Use the metrics address specified through the CLI options file instead of always binding to 0.0.0.0. Note that this bugfix may break some setups that relied on the previous incorrect behavior. To get the old behavior, use --metrics-address 0.0.0.0:<port> when starting the aggregator.
• Add a new rpc_urls field to the client config, which allows setting multiple Sui RPC URLs. The Sui RPC URL(s) used for reads are now selected in the following order: (1) CLI argument, (2) client configuration file, (3) wallet config. If none of these are set, the client will no longer fall back to the fullnode.testnet.sui.io but instead exit with an error.
