   * new feature: experimental :EMIT-CFASL parameter to COMPILE-FILE can
     be used to output toplevel compile-time effects into a separate .CFASL
     file.
+  * optimization: COERCE to VECTOR, STRING, SIMPLE-STRING and recognizable
+    one-dimenstional subtypes of ARRAY is upto 70% faster when the coercion is
+    actually needed.
   * optimization: division of floating point numbers by constants uses
     multiplication by reciprocal when an exact reciprocal exists.
   * optimization: multiplication of single- and double-floats floats by
     constant two has been optimized.
+  * optimization: ARRAY-IN-BOUNDS-P is resolved at compile-time when
+    sufficient type information is available. (thanks to Leslie Polzer)
   * improvement: a STYLE-WARNING is signalled when a generic function
     clobbers an earlier FTYPE proclamation.
