+# Changelog
+
+## 3.0.1
+
+- Fix resource-tracker leaks on Linux and macOS: receivers no longer register blocks they
+  attach to, so `fork` workers no longer accumulate tracker entries or print
+  "leaked shared_memory" warnings at exit.
+- Ship type hints (`py.typed`), checked with strict mypy; expose `memory.__version__`.
+- Support and test Python 3.15; test Linux, macOS, and Windows for every Python version.
+- Require 100% branch coverage; add pre-commit hooks, Dependabot, and a trusted-publishing
+  release workflow.
+
+## 3.0.0
+
+- Python 3.11+, standard-library-only runtime.
+- Fix acknowledgement races, capacity leaks, failed-put recovery, and process cleanup.
+- Preserve NumPy mutability; remove redundant copies and retained pickle storage.
+- Simplify core ownership and sender flow; use immutable metadata and recover from partial startup.
+- Add explicit close, context managers, context selection, and timed acknowledgement waits.
+- Replace legacy tests and benchmarks; add platform CI and recorded machine results.

+Send large Python objects between processes with less pipe I/O.
+
+Originally built to reduce the heavy Windows pipe I/O and uneven throughput caused by
+large `multiprocessing.Queue` transfers. Payloads travel through shared memory;
+queues carry only small metadata, avoiding bulk transfers through the pipe.
+
+Useful for **ML pipelines, reinforcement-learning actors and replay buffers,
+scientific computing, and image/video processing**. Supports pickleable Python
+objects with familiar `put/get` calls. No runtime dependencies, fully typed.
+Python 3.11+ on Linux, macOS, and Windows.
+
+```sh
+pip install py-sharedmemory
+```
+
+## Measured performance
+
+![Transfer speed relative to multiprocessing.Queue, from 16 bytes to 10 GB](benchmarks/results/windows-numpy.png)
+
+About **2× faster at 1–10 MB**; **10 GB transferred in 8.0 s**.
+`mp.Queue` failed at 10 GB (Windows error 87). Small messages favor standard queues.
+
+Core i9-14900K, 191.8 GiB RAM, Windows 11, Python 3.12.10, NumPy 2.5.3.
+2026-10-08; contiguous float32 arrays; `spawn`; capacity 2; median of 5 runs,
+excluding startup and warmup. Up to 1,000 messages or 512 MiB/run, at least one
+message. GB = 10⁹ bytes. [Raw results](benchmarks/results/windows-numpy.json).
+These measurements show transfer speed; I/O and stability depend on the workload.
+
+## Usage
+
+```python
+import multiprocessing as mp
+from memory import create_shared_memory_pair
+
+
+def produce(sender):
+    with sender:
+        sender.put({"step": 42, "frames": bytearray(16_000_000)})
+        sender.wait_for_all_ack()
+
+
+if __name__ == "__main__":
+    ctx = mp.get_context("spawn")
+    sender, receiver = create_shared_memory_pair(capacity=2, ctx=ctx)
+    worker = ctx.Process(target=produce, args=(sender,))
+    worker.start()
+    with receiver:
+        batch = receiver.get(timeout=30)
+    worker.join()
+    sender.close()
+```
+
+One producing process per pair; multiple threads and consumers are supported.
+Pass endpoints to workers before use. `put/get` support `block`, `timeout`, and
+`*_nowait`. Capacity counts outstanding messages; 0/`None` is unbounded.
+
+**Drain before producer close or exit:** `wait_for_all_ack(timeout=...)` returns
+`False` on timeout. Close discards unread data. Within one process, drain before
+closing either endpoint. Received data stays valid after cleanup; arrays preserve mutability.
+
+A [complete example](examples/basic.py) includes error handling.
+
+### API
+
+| Call | Behavior |
+| --- | --- |
+| `create_shared_memory_pair(capacity=0, *, ctx=None)` | Returns `(sender, receiver)` built from one multiprocessing context. |
+| `sender.put(obj, block=True, timeout=None)` / `put_nowait(obj)` | Copies `obj` into a new shared-memory block; raises `queue.Full`. |
+| `sender.wait_for_all_ack(timeout=None)` | Waits until every block is received and freed; `False` on timeout. |
+| `receiver.get(block=True, timeout=None)` / `get_nowait()` | Returns an independent local copy; raises `queue.Empty`. |
+| `close()`, `closed`, `with endpoint:` | Both endpoints; using a closed endpoint raises `BrokenPipeError`. |
+
+## Development
+
+```sh
+python -m pip install -e ".[dev]"
+pre-commit install
+python -m pytest --cov
+pre-commit run --all-files
+```
+
+CI runs the tests on Linux, macOS, and Windows with Python 3.11–3.15 and requires
+100% branch coverage on each. Pre-commit runs Ruff, mypy (strict), and file checks.
+
+To release, update `__version__` in `memory/__init__.py` and the changelog, then
+publish a GitHub release tagged `vX.Y.Z`. The release workflow uploads it to PyPI.
+
+### Benchmark
+
+```sh
+python -m benchmarks.benchmark --sizes 16 100 1000 10000 100000 1000000 10000000 100000000 1000000000 10000000000 --repeats 5 --json benchmarks/results/windows-numpy.json
+python -m benchmarks.plot benchmarks/results/windows-numpy.json benchmarks/results/windows-numpy.png
+```
+
+The full benchmark needs enough RAM for several payload copies.
