+Freeing a great many small objects could take time quadratic in the number
+of arenas, due to using linear search to keep ``obmalloc.c``'s list of
+usable arenas sorted by order of number of free memory pools. This is
+accomplished without search now, leaving the worst-case time linear in the
+number of arenas. For programs where this quite visibly matters (typically
+with more than 100 thousand small objects alive simultaneously), this can
+greatly reduce the time needed to release their memory.

+This will address the common mistake many asyncio users make: an "except

+asyncio.InvalidStateError from their concurrent.futures.* counterparts.

+
+To embed Python into an application, a new ``--embed`` option must be passed
+to ``python3-config --libs --embed`` to get ``-lpython3.8`` (link the
+application to libpython). To support both 3.8 and older, try
+``python3-config --libs --embed`` first and fallback to ``python3-config
+--libs`` (without ``--embed``) if the previous command fails.
+
+Add a pkg-config ``python-3.8-embed`` module to embed Python into an
+application: ``pkg-config python-3.8-embed --libs`` includes
+``-lpython3.8``. To support both 3.8 and older, try ``pkg-config
+python-X.Y-embed --libs`` first and fallback to ``pkg-config python-X.Y
+--libs`` (without ``--embed``) if the previous command fails (replace
+``X.Y`` with the Python version).
+
+On the other hand, ``pkg-config python3.8 --libs`` no longer contains
+``-lpython3.8``. C extensions must not be linked to libpython (except on
+Android, case handled by the script); this change is backward incompatible
+on purpose.
