This release contains cryptonight_heavy and small OpenCL-AMD optimisations.
Pre-compiled binaries for Linux are back.
Config files from 2.5.X are compatible and 2.4.X or older are NOT compatible to this release.

FAQ:
- The exact increase in AMD will vary. The difference between 2 and 10% was noticed on test cards.
- under Nvidiyu in heavy growth will not be compared with 2.5.2 (the optimization method in fact would even slow them)
- in CNv2, the difference, if any, will be within the limits of error
- Drivers are still or BC or not new.

If you throw here the maximum hashrate that you received from the card in this form:
Miner (config): intensity, memory card, strided, work size, number of streams per card. + miner version (stack)
Map: hpp / memory frequency (memory type) and frequency
Operating system

Zhor / temperatures: whenever possible (there are problems with it - the hive moves as far as is known, if there is a zhor from the outlet - excellent)

it is important - you need to be sure that the balls reach the pool and errors do not pour out. (in stack it can be checked by pressing R)
This would help people to select the config, and for us in collecting statistics.
