 ## 0.1.1 - 2024-07-02
 
-* Increase default `msize` for 9p mounts to 4MiB.
+* Increase default `msize` for 9p mounts to 32MiB depending on kernel support,
+  which may only be effective depending on `trans_virtio` driver support for
+  sizes larger than 500kB.
 
 * QEMU parameter updates:
   * Update `nowait` to `wait=off`.
