Once we +get some feedback from sites running this and it looks like we're +stable, this will probably be renamed to something like 1.8.1. + +The two big changes in r6 over r5 are: + + o Bytecode optimizations to try to modify lists in-place whenever +possible. List manipulation and mutation should be orders of +magnitude faster in some cases. + + o String "interning" during load; initially, there will be one and +only one in-memory copy of each identical string.
