+- **Changed:**
+ When compiled with OCaml >= 4.10.0, Coq will use the new best-fit GC
+ policy, which should provide some performance benefits. Coq's policy
+ is optimized for speed, but could increase memory consumption in
+ some cases. You are welcome to tune it using the ``OCAMLRUNPARAM``
+ variable and report back setting so we could optimize more.
+ (`#13040 <https://github.com/coq/coq/pull/13040>`_,
+ fixes `#11277 <https://github.com/coq/coq/issues/11277>`_,
+ by Emilio Jesus Gallego Arias).
