Hugo `0.30` is the **Race Car Edition**. Hugo is already very very fast, but much wants more. So we added **Fast Render Mode**. It is hard to explain, so start the Hugo development server with `hugo server` and start editing. Live reloads just got so much faster! The "how and what" is discussed at length in [other places](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/pull/3959), but the short version is that we now re-render only the parts of the site that you are working on.
The second performance-related feature is a follow-up to the Template Metrics added in Hugo `0.29`. Now, if you add the flag `--templateMetricsHints`, we will calculate a score for how your partials can be cached (with the `partialCached` template func).
This release also more or less makes the really fast Chroma highlighter a complete alternative to Pygments. Most notable is the new table `linenos` support ([7c30e2cb](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/commit/7c30e2cbb08fdf0e61f80c7f1aa29909aeca4211) [@bep](https://github.com/bep) [#3915](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/issues/3915)), which makes copy-and-paste code blocks much easier.
This release represents **31 contributions by 10 contributors** to the main Hugo code base.
[@bep](https://github.com/bep) leads the Hugo development with a significant amount of contribution, but also a big shoutout to [@moorereason](https://github.com/moorereason), [@digitalcraftsman](https://github.com/digitalcraftsman), and [@bmon](https://github.com/bmon) for their ongoing contributions.
And as always a big thanks to [@digitalcraftsman](https://github.com/digitalcraftsman) for his relentless work on keeping the documentation and the themes site in pristine condition.
Many have also been busy writing and fixing the documentation in [hugoDocs](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugoDocs),
which has received **26 contributions by 15 contributors**. A special thanks to [@bep](https://github.com/bep), [@digitalcraftsman](https://github.com/digitalcraftsman), [@moorereason](https://github.com/moorereason), and [@kaushalmodi](https://github.com/kaushalmodi) for their work on the documentation site.
Hugo now has:
* 20195+ [stars](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/stargazers)
* 454+ [contributors](https://github.com/gohugoio/hugo/graphs/contributors)
* 180+ [themes](http://themes.gohugo.io/)
## Notes
* Running `hugo server` will now run with the new "Fast Render Mode" default on. To turn it off, run `hugo server --disableFastRender` or set `disableFastRender=true` in your site config.
* There have been several fixes and enhancements in the Chroma highlighter. One is that it now creates Pygments compatible CSS classes, which means that you may want to re-generate the stylesheet. See the [Syntax Highlighting Doc](https://gohugo.io/content-management/syntax-highlighting/).
