F# compiler eliminated a process-wide MeterListener accumulation bug that was degrading cache operation performance in DEBUG builds.

The F# team shipped a critical fix [1] that stops unbounded MeterListener instances from leaking in debug builds. Every Cache instance was creating a listener that registered globally and never disposed, causing cache operations to slow linearly with listener count. Separately, dev-proxy addressed a stricter analyzer rule [2] by converting synchronous file loading to async when upgrading Microsoft.VisualStudio.Threading to 18.x. The threading library's new VSTHRD103 enforcement caught the blocking call and forced the refactor. Meanwhile, SqlClient pinned the Microsoft.SqlServer.Server package version [3] to 1.0.0 to fix MDS release builds pulling non-existent preview builds from the internal feed. Routine codeflow updates continue rolling through WinForms [4] and WPF [7] from the VMR, with F# pulling latest Roslyn and MSBuild dependencies [5] [6].

Action items

→ Review F# debug build cache metrics fix if you maintain diagnostic tooling dotnet/fsharp [monitor]
→ Test dev-proxy's async certificate loading in your CI pipeline dotnet/dev-proxy [plan]
→ Verify SqlClient builds against pinned Microsoft.SqlServer.Server 1.0.0 dotnet/SqlClient [plan]
