+
+FreeBSD is available on both amd64 (Intel and AMD) and arm64 (Graviton) EC2 instances.
+
+A fix to man:ena[4] taskqueue NUMA binding has been applied, resulting in significant improvements in network throughput on c8gn.48xlarge systems starting with 14.5-RELEASE.
+
+EC2 now supports automatically growing filesystems when EBS volumes are expanded; this is enabled by default in 16.0-CURRENT and will be available as a non-default option in 15.2-RELEASE.
+
+The `ebsnvme` tool which ships in EC2 images now supports the "ebsnvme stats" command, compatible with Amazon Linux.
+
+A new "desktop" flavour of AMI is now available for FreeBSD 15, which uses xrdp to expose a KDE environment.
