Did the complexity metric change?

Are there any changes in metric complexity the way it measures in different versions of SonarQube for PL/SQL code?

The number of complexities on version 5.6.6 is much lower than that in version 4.5.4, even though I did not change the code.

This is unrelated to the version of SonarQube, but instead to the version of SonarPLSQL. Version 2.9 includes corrections to the calculation of Cyclomatic Complexity. Previously it was a mix between Cyclomatic Complexity and Essential Complexity (so extra points were added for early returns) but now it is purely Cyclomatic Complexity, so a drop in values is expected.
