+ <p>
+ As of PHP 8.1.0, the official Windows dependencies use <a
+ href="https://libjpeg-turbo.org/";>libjpeg-turbo</a>
+ instead of <a href="http://ijg.org/";>libjpeg</a>. The main reason is that
+ libjpeg-turbo offers better performance, because it uses SIMD
instructions
+ on supported platforms (Windows x86 and x64 are supported). Note that
many
+ Linux distributions already use libjpeg-turbo for quite a while.
+ </p>
+ <p>
+ This is relevant for the GD extension, but may affect other extensions as
+ well. Please <a href="https://bugs.php.net/report.php";>file a bug
report</a>,
+ if you experience any problems regarding this change.
