+
+### Patch Changes
+
+- fix: retry `fs.lstat` on transient `EBUSY` errors instead of flagging the (by [@alexander-akait](https://github.com/alexander-akait) in [#293](https://github.com/webpack/watchpack/pull/293))
+  file as removed (fixes #223, #44).
+
+  On Windows it is common for anti-virus scanners, indexers or the editor
+  itself to briefly hold an exclusive handle on a file that has just
+  changed. Before this change the watcher would receive the `fs.watch`
+  event, call `lstat`, get back `EBUSY`, and fall through to `setMissing`
+  — causing a spurious `remove` event and in some cases leaving the
+  watcher unable to see further changes for that file until the directory
+  was re-scanned.
+
+  `DirectoryWatcher` now retries `lstat` up to three times (100 ms apart)
+  before giving up, and does not emit a remove when the only reason the
+  file could not be stat'd was `EBUSY`.
+
+  The retry count is controlled by the `WATCHPACK_RETRIES` environment
+  variable (default: `3`; set to `0` or `"false"` to disable retrying and
+  restore the previous behaviour).
+
+- Improve perfomance for ignored and improve perfomance for reduce plan. (by [@alexander-akait](https://github.com/alexander-akait) in [#289](https://github.com/webpack/watchpack/pull/289))
+
+- perf: skip the path-separator replacement when the input has no backslash (by [@alexander-akait](https://github.com/alexander-akait) in [#287](https://github.com/webpack/watchpack/pull/287))
+  (benchmarks measure ~35–45% less time for `ignored` matchers on POSIX paths),
+  fast-path single-element `ignored` arrays, and make `reducePlan`'s selection
+  loop walk only structurally valid candidates with an early exit when the
+  ideal reduction is found (measured ~20–40% faster on medium and large
+  plans). Adds a tinybench suite under `bench/` and a CodSpeed GitHub Actions
+  workflow so future regressions are caught automatically.
