+\subsection{Performance Improvements}
+Bacula Enterprise 6.2 has a number of new performance improvements:
+
+\begin{itemize}
+\item An improved way of storing Bacula Resources (as defined in
+the .conf files). This new handling permits much faster loading or
+reloading of the conf files, and permits larger numbers of resources.
+
+\item Improved performance when inserting large numbers of files in
+the DB catalog by breaking the insertion into smaller chunks, thus
+allowing better sharing when running multiple simultaneous jobs.
+
+\item Performance enhancements in BVFS concerning eliminating 
+duplicate path records.
+
+\item Performance improvement when getting Pool records.
+
+\item Pruning performance enhancements.
+\end{itemize}
+
+\subsection{Enhanced Status and Error Messages}
+We have enhanced the Storage daemon status output to be more
+readable. This is important when there are a large number of
+devices. In addition to formatting changes, it also includes more
+details on which devices are reading and writing.
+
+A number of error messages have been enhanced to have more specific
+data on what went wrong.
+
+If a file changes size while being backed up the old and new size
+are reported.
+
+\subsection{Miscellaneous New Features}
+\begin{itemize}
+\item Allow unlimited line lengths in .conf files (previously limited
+to 2000 characters).
+
+\item Allow /dev/null in ChangerCommand to indicated a Virtual Autochanger.
+
+\item Add a --fileprune option to the manual_prune.pl script.
+
+\item Add a -m option to make_catalog_backup.pl to do maintenance
+on the catalog.
+
+\item Safer code that cleans up the working directory when starting
+the daemons. It limits what files can be deleted, hence enhances 
+security.
+
+\item Added a new .ls command in bconsole to permit browsing a client's
+filesystem.
+
+\item Fixed a number of bugs, includes some obscure seg faults, and a
+race condition that occurred infrequently when running Copy, Migration,
+or Virtual Full backups.
+
+\item Included a new vSphere library version, which will hopefully
+fix some of the more obscure bugs.
+
+\item Upgraded to a newer version of Qt4 for bat. All indications
+are that this will improve bat's stability on Windows machines.
+
+\item The Windows installers now detect and refuse to install on
+an OS that does not match the 32/64 bit value of the installer.
