+  o Major bugfixes:
+    - When we have too much memory queued in circuits (according to a new
+      MaxMemInCellQueues option), close the circuits consuming the most
+      memory.  This prevents us from running out of memory as a relay if
+      circuits fill up faster than they can be drained.  Fixes
+      bug 9063; bugfix on the 54th commit of Tor. This bug is a further
+      fix beyond bug 6252, whose fix was merged into 0.2.3.21-rc.
+
+      Also fixes an earlier approach taken in 0.2.4.13-alpha, where we
+      tried to solve this issue simply by imposing an upper limit on the
+      number of queued cells for a single circuit.  That approach proved to
+      be problematic, since there are ways to provoke clients to send a
+      number of cells in excess of any such reasonable limit.
+      Fixes bug 9072; bugfix on 0.2.4.13-alpha.
