+  o Major bugfixes (circuit building):
+    - Conflux circuit building was ignoring the "predicted ports" feature,
+      which aims to make Tor stop building circuits if there have been
+      no user requests lately. This bug led to every idle Tor on the
+      network building and discarding circuits every 30 seconds, which
+      added overall load to the network, used bandwidth and battery from
+      clients that weren't actively using their Tor, and kept sockets open
+      on guards which added connection padding essentially forever. Fixes
+      bug 40981; bugfix on 0.4.8.1-alpha;
