+Version 1.3
+-----------

+This release is the result of a loong run profiling and optimization work.
+
+Memory footprint improvements, better data structure reduce the memory usage typically by a factor two. If you have memory available you may want to increase the number of buffers, see :ref:`Buffer Sizes`.
+
+Performance improvements, ASYNCH runs about 30% faster.
