'''Improvements'''

#Optimized TCP congestion control algorithm.<br/> Ensured implementation of TCP RENO for outgoing connections and TCP CUBIC for incoming connections. 
#Improvement in the data transfer speed.<br/> SafeSquid can now handle 10-15% more transactions per second. CPU and RAM utilization also decreased by almost 50%. 
#Logging improved to report the actual speed of data transfer.<br/> Example> debug: network: net_filebuf_read: speed: swgupdates2.safesquid.net 7082 bytes in 6.1520 ms [ 1.1512 MBps ]<br/> debug: network: net_transfer: speed: 192.168.0.12 downloaded from 1.client-channel.google.com 487 bytes in 116.0000 us [ 4.1983 MBps ] 
#Rationalization in logs. 
#Optimization done in HTTPS. Initial SSL connect will be faster now. 
#Optimization in memory utilization. 
#Optimization in SafeSquid init script and TCP tuning script. 

&nbsp;

'''BugFixes'''

#Fix for Captive Portal feature.<br/> It was observed a conflict and broken web-security client implementation via Captive Portal.<br/> Identified the flaw and fixed it. 
#Fix for TCP tuning script.<br/> It was observed that tcp_tune.sh script was passing wrong variables to init script which then resulted in SafeSquid crashing immediately at start.<br/> Identified the flaw and fixed it.
