Only 4,000 parallel requests that are writing to the database are supported now, any requests above that limit may be rejected. Up to 500,000 parallel reading requests were tested.
According to the documentation, the GOKAPI_DATA_DIR environment variable should be persistent, however that was not the case. Now the data directory that was set on first start will be used. If you were using GOKAPI_DATA_DIR after the first start, make sure that the data directory is the one found in your config file.

Existing API keys will be granted all API permissions except MODIFY_API, therefore cannot use /auth/friendlyname without having the permission granted first
