Synapse 1.62.0rc2 (2022-07-01)
==============================

Bugfixes
--------

- Fix unread counts for users on large servers. Introduced in v1.62.0rc1. ([\#13140](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13140))
- Fix DB performance when deleting old push notifications. Introduced in v1.62.0rc1. ([\#13141](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/13141))

* Extra validation for rest/client/account_data

This is a fairly simple endpoint and we did pretty well here.

* Changelog

`_check_event_auth` is expected to raise `AuthError`s, so no need to log it
again.

When we receive an event over federation during a faster join, there is no need
to wait for full state, since we have a whole reconciliation process designed
to take the partial state into account.

* Make _iterate_over_text easier to read by using simple data structures

* Prefer a set of tags to ignore

In my tests, it's 4x faster to check for containment in a set of this size

* Add a stack size limit to _iterate_over_text

* Continue accepting the case where there is no body element

* Use an early return instead for None
