   o Major features (security, unix domain sockets):
-    - Tor can now expose a SOCKS proxy over an AF_UNIX Unix Domain Socket.
-      This allows client
-      applications to Tor without having creating
-      AF_INET or AF_INET6 sockets. If an application has
-      permission to connect to Tor's AF_UNIX socket, it can
-      communicate with Tor as if it were an other SOCKS proxy. This
-      should allow high risk applications to use Tor while completely
-      disabling their ability to make non-Tor connections.
-      To create a
-      socket of this type, use "SocksPort unix:/path/to/socket". Closes
-      ticket 12585.

   o Major features (performance):
-    - Make the the CPU worker implementation more efficient by
-      avoiding the kernel and lengthening pipelines. The original
-      implementation used sockets to transfer data from the main thread
-      to the workers, and didn't allow any thread to be assigned
-      more than a single piece of work at once. The new implementation
-      avoids communications overhead by making requests in shared
-      memory, avoiding kernel IO where possible, and keeping more
-      requests in flight at once. Resolves issue #9682.
