-Hive Changes
-------------
-
-* Handle spurious ``AbortedException`` when closing S3 input streams
+Streaming Index Joins
+---------------------
+Index joins will now switch to use a key-by-key streaming join if index
+results fail to fit in the allocated index memory space.
 
 Distributed Joins
 -----------------
-
 Joins where both tables are distributed are now supported. This allows larger tables to be joined,
 and can be enabled with the ``distributed-joins-enabled`` flag. It may perform worse than the existing
 broadcast join implementation because it requires redistributing both tables.
 This feature is still experimental, and should be used with caution.
