This is a bugfix-only release.

The FogBugz 8.7.57 release contained a performance regression which impacts some licensed FogBugz accounts. The symptom is that some FogBugz requests, seemingly at random but at a frequency of at least once a minute, will take an increased amount of time.

This time is spent building a cache which is meant to reduce the response time of all FogBugz pages.

In many environments the time required to build this cache is negligible, however some environments experience a delay of 5 to 10 seconds, and we've had some reports of delays as high as 20 seconds.

We recommend using FogBugz 8.7.58 in place of 8.7.57.

Update 2/13/2012: The 8.7.58 FogBugz + Kiln installer bundle is available for download.

Update 1/27/2012: 8.7.58 is currently only available for FogBugz-only licensed installations. A new FogBugz + Kiln installer bundle will be released in the coming weeks which will include FogBugz 8.7.58. Our support team has a patch which can be easily applied to 8.7.57 installations which will fix this bug -- If you're running 8.7.57 but still waiting on the bundled installer, contact our support team and we can patch your installation.

This issue is affecting us, but as Anders mentioned, we can't get to the new version to download it.

	It's affecting us as well - our build server is having problems getting changes from Kiln. This started happening after the upgrade to 8.7.57. – AndyJL Jan 27 at 21:50
	Fetching changes from Kiln is extremely slow, and I am pretty sure that it is due to this issue. Please update the download page. – AndyJL Jan 27 at 21:56
	A FogBugz + Kiln installer with this patch is not yet available, however our support team is able to patch your installation manually. Please email or call us and we'll get it sorted out straight-away. – Jude Allred♦ Jan 27 at 22:48
