It is now more efficient (and given a limited CPU resource, perhaps now possible) to serve
multiple clients all pulling the same group or camera stream. Given identical encoding
parameters (fixed size image, no UI3 parameter overrides), the software will now share a
single camera or group encoding with multiple browser and phone clients.

A switch was made to the use of a Performance Data Helper in place of the previous
GetSystemTimes() for the calculation of system CPU usage. This is proving to be much
more accurate and the “scaling factor” on Settings/Other no longer may be necessary.

The /h264/ MPEG transport stream (.ts) now supports camera and group cycling.
Custom aspect ratios for the frame and camera windows are now supported in layout edit
mode.

I'm seeing that I still need to run 2.0 on my cpu scale factor to get it close to what BI is reporting. But it does seem better than before.
