Will release to the stores later today when I am confident there is no regression.

Closed as fixed:
  • Github Issue
    • 563 cosmetic filters in EasyList and 194 cosmetic filters in "Fanboy's Social Blocking List" were potentially affected by this bug: some DOM elements could unduly disappear from a page
    • It appears that the filters found in "Fanboy's Social Blocking List" were the ones most likely to be affected by the bug (see #456)
  • Cosmetic filter cache: convert watermark-based pruning trigger to time-based pruning trigger
    • Concretely, this will make uBlock use memory in a more savvy way with regard to cosmetic filtering cache. It's a code area I had not revisited since the first commit.
Other changes:
  • Improved performance of MD5 hash function
    • JsPerf: MD5 Shootout
    • The MD5 hash function is used when pulling resource from Github repo, to ensure integrity; and for local mirroring, to ensure mirror-able resources are cached only once.
