# 0.25.5

## New Features 🎉

* Predicates that cannot be answered by the ParadeDB index can now be evaluated by intersecting
  with a bitmap scan over another PostgreSQL index (btree, GIN, or GiST), rather than checking
  every matching row against the heap, reducing buffer reads by up to 20x for selective filters.
* Replaced the `paradedb.check_aggregate_scan` and `paradedb.check_topk_scan` GUCs with a single
  unified `paradedb.planner_warnings` GUC (`off`, `warning`, or `error`). When set to `error`,
  queries that cannot use an optimized ParadeDB scan raise an error instead of logging a warning.

## Performance Improvements 🚀

* MPP search readers are now initialized only in the processes that execute them, avoiding
  redundant index opens on the leader and opening fast fields lazily per segment.

The full changelog is available [on the GitHub Release](https://github.com/paradedb/paradedb/releases/tag/v0.25.5).
