This release contains a number of improvements to the local Rack, including changes to reduce CPU utilization.

Due to a change in how the local rack update process works, you will need to reinstall your local Rack to upgrade to this version. Doing so will not lose any of your local apps, environment, or data.

To reinstall the local Rack run `sudo convox rack install local`.

Looks like there is some sort of cross-compiling issue. Investigating.

Fix is going through CI. If you’d like to try it out early you can do this:

`convox update 20190314210537 && sudo convox rack install local -v 20190314210537`
