We are happy to announce the general availability of Liberica Native Image Kit (NIK) versions 23.0.3 for JDK 17 and 23.1.2 for JDK 21 as part of Critical Patch Update (CPU) release cycle. The builds contain several security and bug fixes.
Liberica NIK releases are aligned with GraalVM release schedule. Starting with JDK 20 release in March 2023, GraalVM CE conforms to the six-month JDK release cadence. CPU builds become available four times a year as before.
All Liberica NIK builds contain the latest version of Liberica JDK with fixes and eliminated security issues.
Notable improvements
- Better support for AWT and JavaFX fullscreen mode.
- Intrinsified memory copying routines on AMD64 platforms. Where available, they now use AVX instructions for better performance.
- Improved SubstrateVM monitor enter/exit routines for accelerated startup of native images. Head to this article for more details on the improvement.
