+* Reduced compile times. (Note that some programs may need to add additional
+ `#include`s, e.g. if the program uses `boost::array` but does not explicitly
+ include `<boost/array.hpp>`.)
+* Reduced the size of generated code.
+* Improved multiprocessor scalability on Windows by using a dedicated hidden
+ thread to wait for timers.
+* Improved performance of `asio::streambuf` with `async_read()` and
+ `async_read_until()`. These read operations now use the existing capacity of
+ the `streambuf` when reading, rather than limiting the read to 512 bytes.
+* Added optional separate compilation. To enable, add
+ `#include <boost/asio/impl/src.cpp>` to one source file in a program, then
+ build the program with `BOOST_ASIO_SEPARATE_COMPILATION` defined in the
+ project/compiler settings. Alternatively, `BOOST_ASIO_DYN_LINK` may be defined
+ to build a separately-compiled Asio as part of a shared library.
