The core Elixir library shipped five targeted optimizations overnight that collectively eliminate redundant computation across URI handling, string operations, and set algorithms, while Phoenix and LiveView align their tooling with Elixir 1.20's stricter compiler warnings.

Elixir's standard library landed a coordinated optimization sprint that rewires frequently-used functions for both speed and memory efficiency. URI.to_string/1 now destructures once instead of repeatedly updating maps [1], while the unpercent decoder switched from with-clause overhead to guard-based pattern matching for cleaner bytecode [2]. String.bag_distance/2 eliminated a redundant full-pass computation and cut execution time by 25% on short inputs [3], and MapSet.symmetric_difference/2 flipped its iteration strategy to fold over the smaller set, yielding over 100x speedup when sizes mismatch [4]. These aren't flashy features but they're the kind of surgical improvements that compound across millions of production calls. On the Phoenix side, the framework removed deprecated xref configuration in favor of Elixir 1.20's new elixirc_options directive [5], silencing compiler warnings while maintaining the same behavior for optional dependencies. LiveView's assign_stream function got a 3-4x speedup for bulk insertions by batching operations on the LiveStream struct instead of updating the Socket on each iteration [7]. Documentation across both projects shifted to ExDoc's native admonition blocks for cleaner rendering [6] [8].
