 - `InMemoryCache` now coalesces `EntityStore` updates to guarantee only one `store.merge(id, fields)` call per `id` per cache write. <br/>

-### Potentially breaking changes
+### Potentially disruptive changes
 
 - To avoid retaining sensitive information from mutation root field arguments, Apollo Client v3.4 automatically clears any `ROOT_MUTATION` fields from the cache after each mutation finishes. If you need this information to remain in the cache, you can prevent the removal by passing the `keepRootFields: true` option to `client.mutate`. `ROOT_MUTATION` result data are also passed to the mutation `update` function, so we recommend obtaining the results that way, rather than using `keepRootFields: true`, if possible. <br/>

+- Internally, Apollo Client now controls the execution of development-only code using the `__DEV__` global variable, rather than `process.env.NODE_ENV`. While this change should not cause any visible differences in behavior, it will increase your minified+gzip bundle size by more than 3.5kB, unless you configure your minifier to replace `__DEV__` with a `true` or `false` constant, the same way you already replace `process.env.NODE_ENV` with a string literal like `"development"` or `"production"`. For an example of configuring a Create React App project without ejecting, see this pull request for our [React Apollo reproduction template](https://github.com/apollographql/react-apollo-error-template/pull/51). <br/>

 - Internally, Apollo Client now uses namespace syntax (e.g. `import * as React from "react"`) for imports whose types are re-exported (and thus may appear in `.d.ts` files). This change should remove any need to configure `esModuleInterop` or `allowSyntheticDefaultImports` in `tsconfig.json`, but might require updating bundler configurations that specify named exports of the `react` and `prop-types` packages, to include exports like `createContext` and `createElement` ([example](https://github.com/apollographql/apollo-client/commit/16b08e1af9ba9934041298496e167aafb128c15d)). <br/>
