Corrected tooltip evaluation for multiselect
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.3
After adding help text for a multiselect help icon with overlay on hover field, the value was not being sourced. Changing to a different type of help text or control type worked as expected. This was due to an error in case sensitivity, using pyToolTip when it should have been pyTooltip, and has been corrected.

Fluid Overlay displays as expected in Firefox
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.3
After upgrade, using the Overlay format "Fluid" to perform the screening matches task in CLM using Firefox had an overlay that covered the entire screen but was missing the scrollbar to manage the content. This has been resolved by adding changes to support dynamic content (with scrollbar) for center overlay.

Updated SLA table clearance
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
After cases were resolved, SLA entries were not getting cleared from the SLA table. This caused the SLA table to have a huge number of Overall SLA and PendFlow details present for cases that were resolved or moved to the next state, which impacted case processing via SLA Agent. This was traced to SLA queue-items not being removed by delete-deferred as expected, and has been resolved by invalidating the deferred operations and scheduling item removal.

Documentation updated for binary REST response
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
The online help documentation has been updated to clarify the instructions for REST endpoints that return binary data. In some cases, the data is returned in a MIME multipart structure. It can also be returned as the response body. In the latter case, mapping the message body to a java object property will cause the binary data to be mapped as a java byte array value. Mapping the message body to a single value text property will cause the binary data to be mapped as a Base64 encoded text value.

Oracle performance improvement
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
Poor performance was seen when importing a RAP with schemas using Oracle. To resolve this, an update has been made which will set the Oracle tuning parameter at the session level by altering the setting "_OPTIMIZER_PUSH_PRED_COST_BASED"=false before the SMA query involving all_constraints. The setting will be returned to true after the execution of the SMA query. This is controlled through the prconfig setting '"database/performance/smaqueryperformanceenabled" which defaults to true so the setting and unsetting of the Oracle parameter is automatic.

Improved resolved rules cache
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
When Rule resolution iterated over a candidate list to fetch a candidate, performance issues were seen on very large sites. To resolve this, an enhancement has been added that will cache the resolved virtual table entries to optimize performance in high demand use cases like DSM.

Locking and classmap improvements
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
Threads were getting stuck inside classMap and tableInformationMap, causing nodes to go down. This was traced to issues with classmap performance and locking, and has been resolved by replacing the lock library with a newer version and refactoring the tableInformationMapImpl class to use a concurrent hashmap instead.

Updated Tracer for cluster events
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
When running the tracer from the Admin Studio Listener management landing page, Tracer was always fetching data from one node only even though events were generated on another node. This was due to the specific node where the Listener was running being passed to the concern activity while launching the tracer; the Tracer Client node did not have data to check if the event was being populated on another node, and the result was to always fetch data from one node only even though events were generated on another node. To resolve this, the web node ID where the event is running will be passed.

XML Parse handles dates with time zone correctly
Resolved in Pega Version 8.4.4
Due to a difference in data mapping behavior for Date values, the Parse XML new assembler implementation was incorrectly applying the DateTime type of processing for Date inputs when using timezones and silently ignored the exceptions reported. This has been resolved.
