+- Various general (but very important) speed improvements [[#96]](https://github.com/aiidateam/disk-objectstore/pull/96) [[#102]](https://github.com/aiidateam/disk-objectstore/pull/102)
+- Add callbacks to a number of functions (e.g. export, add_objects_to_pack, ... to allow showing progress bars or similar indicators [[#96]](https://github.com/aiidateam/disk-objectstore/pull/96)
+- Implement repacking (at least when not changing hashing or compression) [[#96]](https://github.com/aiidateam/disk-objectstore/pull/96)
+- Remove `export` function, implement `import_objects` function instead, to be called on the other side (it's more efficient) [[#96]](https://github.com/aiidateam/disk-objectstore/pull/96)
+- Add support for VACUUMing operations on the SQLite database (very important for efficiency) [[#96]](https://github.com/aiidateam/disk-objectstore/pull/96)
+- Add support for multiple hashing algorithms [[#96]](https://github.com/aiidateam/disk-objectstore/pull/96)
+- Add concept of (unique) `container_id` [[#97]](https://github.com/aiidateam/disk-objectstore/pull/97)
+- Generalize the compression algorithm implementation, and multiple algorithms are supported now [[#99]](https://github.com/aiidateam/disk-objectstore/pull/99)

 # v0.4.0 (20 July 2020)
 - Major robustness improvements and new functionality (possibility to pack while using the repository, tested on all platforms)
 - Not deleting loose files when packing; now there is a `clean_storage()` function to do it afterwards, as a maintenance operation
