o New directory authorities:
- Set up gabelmoo (run by Karsten Loesing) as the fifth v3 directory
authority.
o Major performance improvements:
- Switch our old ring buffer implementation for one more like that
- used by free Unix kernels. The wasted space in a buffer with
- 1mb of data will now be more like 8k than 1mb. The new
- implementation also avoids realloc();realloc(); patterns that
- can contribute to memory fragmentation.

- When we're not serving v2 directory information, there is no reason
to actually keep any around. Remove the obsolete files and directory
on startup if they are very old and we aren't going to serve them.
o Minor performance improvements:
- - Reference-count and share copies of address policy entries; only
- 5% of them were actually distinct.

interested in a given message.
