Any changes needed +by server administrators will be communicated via our usual announcements channels, +but we are striving to make this as seamless as possible. + +### Features + +- Add support for asynchronous uploads as defined by [MSC2246](https://github.com/matrix-org/matrix-spec-proposals/pull/2246). Contributed by @sumnerevans at @beeper. ([\#15503](https://github.com/matrix-org/synapse/issues/15503)) +- Improve the performance of some operations in multi-worker deployments.
