* 2021-01-31, `v1.7.0`: stable release 1.7: support explicit user provided memory regions, more precise statistics,
improve macOS overriding, initial support for Apple M1, improved DragonFly support, faster memcpy on Windows, various small fixes.
### Older Releases
* 2020-09-24, `v1.6.7`: stable release 1.6: using standard C atomics, passing tsan testing, improved
handling of failing to commit on Windows, add [`mi_process_info`](https://github.com/microsoft/mimalloc/blob/master/include/mimalloc.h#L156) api call.
* 2020-08-06, `v1.6.4`: stable release 1.6: improved error recovery in low-memory situations,
support for IllumOS and Haiku, NUMA support for Vista/XP, improved NUMA detection for AMD Ryzen, ubsan support.
* 2020-05-05, `v1.6.3`: stable release 1.6: improved behavior in out-of-memory situations, improved malloc zones on macOS,
build PIC static libraries by default, add option to abort on out-of-memory, line buffered statistics.
* 2020-04-20, `v1.6.2`: stable release 1.6: fix compilation on Android, MingW, Raspberry, and Conda,
stability fix for Windows 7, fix multiple mimalloc instances in one executable, fix `strnlen` overload,
fix aligned debug padding.
* 2020-02-17, `v1.6.1`: stable release 1.6: minor updates (build with clang-cl, fix alignment issue for small objects).
* 2020-02-09, `v1.6.0`: stable release 1.6: fixed potential memory leak, improved overriding
and thread local support on FreeBSD, NetBSD, DragonFly, and macOSX. New byte-precise
heap block overflow detection in debug mode (besides the double-free detection and free-list
corruption detection). Add `nodiscard` attribute to most allocation functions.
Enable `MIMALLOC_PAGE_RESET` by default. New reclamation strategy for abandoned heap pages
for better memory footprint.
* 2020-02-09, `v1.5.0`: stable release 1.5: improved free performance, small bug fixes.
* 2020-01-22, `v1.4.0`: stable release 1.4: improved performance for delayed OS page reset,
more eager concurrent free, addition of STL allocator, fixed potential memory leak.
* 2020-01-15, `v1.3.0`: stable release 1.3: bug fixes, improved randomness and [stronger
free list encoding](https://github.com/microsoft/mimalloc/blob/783e3377f79ee82af43a0793910a9f2d01ac7863/include/mimalloc-internal.h#L396) in secure mode.
* 2019-12-22, `v1.2.2`: stable release 1.2: minor updates.
* 2019-11-22, `v1.2.0`: stable release 1.2: bug fixes, improved secure mode (free list corruption checks, double free mitigation). Improved dynamic overriding on Windows.
* 2019-10-07, `v1.1.0`: stable release 1.1.
* 2019-09-01, `v1.0.8`: pre-release 8: more robust windows dynamic overriding, initial huge page support.
* 2019-08-10, `v1.0.6`: pre-release 6: various performance improvements.
