* FEATURE: improve new [time series](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/keyConcepts.html#time-series) registration speed on systems with high number of CPU cores. Thanks to @misutoth for the initial idea and [implementation](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/5212).
* FEATURE: make [background merge](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#storage) more responsive and scalable. This should help the following issues: [5190](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5190), [3425](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3425), [648](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/648).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): add support for discovering [Hetzner Cloud](https://www.hetzner.com/cloud) and [Hetzner Robot](https://docs.hetzner.com/robot) scrape targets. See [this feature request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3154) and [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/sd_configs.html#hetzner_sd_configs).
* FEATURE: [graphite](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#graphite-render-api-usage): add support for negative index in `groupByNode` and `aliasByNode` functions. Thanks to @rbizos for [the pull request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/5581).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): add support for discovering [Hetzner Cloud](https://www.hetzner.com/cloud) and [Hetzner Robot](https://docs.hetzner.com/robot) scrape targets. See [this feature request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/3154) and [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/sd_configs.html#hetzner_sd_configs).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): add support for [DataDog v2 data ingestion protocol](https://docs.datadoghq.com/api/latest/metrics/#submit-metrics). See [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/#how-to-send-data-from-datadog-agent) and [this feature request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4451).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): reduce initial memory usage when scraping targets, which return huge responses (for example, [kube-state-metrics](https://github.com/kubernetes/kube-state-metrics) in large Kubernetes cluster may return 100MB+ responses), without the need to explicitly enable [stream parsing mode](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent/#stream-parsing-mode). See [this issue](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/5567).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): expose ability to set OAuth2 endpoint parameters per each `-remoteWrite.url` via the command-line flag `-remoteWrite.oauth2.endpointParams`. See [these docs](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html#advanced-usage). Thanks to @mhill-holoplot for the [pull request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/5427).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): add ability to set `attach_metadata.node=true` option for all the [`kubernetes_sd_configs`](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/sd_configs.html#kubernetes_sd_configs) defined at [`-promscrape.config`](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html#quick-start) via `-promscrape.kubernetes.attachNodeMetadataAll` command-line flag. See [this feature request](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/issues/4640). Thanks to @wasim-nihal for [the initial implementation](https://github.com/VictoriaMetrics/VictoriaMetrics/pull/5593).
* FEATURE: [vmagent](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/vmagent.html): do not send unfinished [aggregation state](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/stream-aggregation.html) on shutdown or [hot config reload](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/stream-aggregation.html#configuration-update) by default, as it tend to produce unexpected anomalies with lower values. The old behavior can be restored by specifying `flush_on_shutdown: true` setting in streaming aggregation config. See more details [here](https://docs.victoriametrics.com/stream-aggregation.html#aggregation-outputs).
