Summary

The author expresses excitement about the Windows 10 Anniversary Update, particularly due to the new Bash on Ubuntu feature, but notes issues with the Couchbase Server stemming from incompatibilities with TCMalloc, a tool within gperftools. The update causes the memcached component of Couchbase to repeatedly crash because of a code incompatibility, which is being addressed by Couchbase engineers. Users are advised to delay upgrading to the Anniversary Update or use alternatives such as virtual machines or different network machines until the issue is resolved. Progress on this issue can be tracked via MB-20519, and updates are available through the author's Twitter feed.
