 Version 2.26
 
+* A per-thread cache has been added to malloc. Access to the cache requires
+  no locks and therefore significantly accelerates the fast path to allocate
+  and free small amounts of memory. Refilling an empty cache requires locking
+  the underlying arena. Performance measurements show significant gains in a
+  wide variety of user workloads. Workloads were captured using a special
+  instrumented malloc and analyzed with a malloc simulator. Contributed by
+  DJ Delorie with the help of Florian Weimer, and Carlos O'Donell.
+
 * Unicode 10.0.0 Support: Character encoding, character type info, and
   transliteration tables are all updated to Unicode 10.0.0, using
   generator scripts contributed by Mike FABIAN (Red Hat).

+The approximate maximum overhead of the per-thread cache is thus equal

+@deftp Tunable glibc.malloc.tcache_unsorted_limit
+When the user requests memory and the request cannot be met via the
+per-thread cache, the arenas are used to meet the request.  At this
+time, additional chunks will be moved from existing arena lists to
+pre-fill the corresponding cache.  While copies from the fastbins,
+smallbins, and regular bins are bounded and predictable due to the bin
+sizes, copies from the unsorted bin are not bounded, and incur
+additional time penalties as they need to be sorted as they're
+scanned.  To make scanning the unsorted list more predictable and
+bounded, the user may set this tunable to limit the number of chunks
+that are scanned from the unsorted list while searching for chunks to
+pre-fill the per-thread cache with.  The default, or when set to zero,
+is no limit.
