Full changelog

Improvements to Parallel Query Running

In case you missed it, in 3.10 we’ve added experimental support for Parallel Query Running. Depending on your site you will see dramatic improvements in gatsby build performance. We’ve moved more information into LMDB, fixed a bug and optimized how we merge the state of the workers. You can also force the chunk size for each worker now by setting the GATSBY_PARALLEL_QUERY_CHUNK_SIZE environment variable.

Please give it a try and report back in the PQR GitHub Discussion. We really appreciate any feedback!
