   clang to emit a warning or error if a function call meets one or more
   user-specified conditions.
 
+- Enhanced devirtualization with
+  `-fstrict-vtable-pointers <UsersManual.html#cmdoption-fstrict-vtable-pointers>`_.
+  Clang devirtualizes across different basic blocks, like loops:
+
+  .. code-block:: c++
+
+       struct A {
+           virtual void foo();
+       };
+       void indirect(A &a, int n) {
+           for (int i = 0 ; i < n; i++)
+               a.foo();
+       }
+       void test(int n) {

+Improvements to ThinLTO (-flto=thin)
+------------------------------------
+- Integration with profile data (PGO). When available, profile data enables
+  more accurate function importing decisions, as well as cross-module indirect
+  call promotion.
+- Significant build-time and binary-size improvements when compiling with debug
+  info (-g).
