* [11155](https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/pull/11155): The `FAB_UPDATE_PERMS` config parameter is no longer required as the Superset application correctly informs FAB under which context permissions should be updated.

* [10887](https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/pull/10887): Breaking change: The custom cache backend changed in order to support the Flask-Caching factory method approach and thus must be registered as a custom type. See [here](https://flask-caching.readthedocs.io/en/latest/#custom-cache-backends) for specifics.

* [10674](https://github.com/apache/incubator-superset/pull/10674): Breaking change: PUBLIC_ROLE_LIKE_GAMMA was removed is favour of the new PUBLIC_ROLE_LIKE so it can be set it whatever role you want.

Flask-AppBuilder Permissions
----------------------------

By default, every time the Flask-AppBuilder (FAB) app is initialized the
permissions and views are added automatically to the backend and associated with
the ‘Admin’ role. The issue, however, is when you are running multiple concurrent
workers this creates a lot of contention and race conditions when defining
permissions and views.

To alleviate this issue, the automatic updating of permissions can be disabled
by setting `FAB_UPDATE_PERMS = False` (defaults to True).

In a production environment initialization could take on the following form:

superset init
gunicorn -w 10 ... superset:app

This is already False per here which is set by FAB either here and potentially reset here, though isn't since self.update_perms is already False.
