Changes with nginx 1.5.9 22 Jan  
2014

```
*) Change: now nginx expects escaped URIs in "X-Accel-Redirect" 

```

headers.

```
*) Feature: the "ssl_buffer_size" directive.

*) Feature: the "limit_rate" directive can now be used to rate limit
   responses sent in SPDY connections.

*) Feature: the "spdy_chunk_size" directive.

*) Feature: the "ssl_session_tickets" directive.
   Thanks to Dirkjan Bussink.

*) Bugfix: the $ssl_session_id variable contained full session
   serialized instead of just a session id.
   Thanks to Ivan Ristić.

*) Bugfix: nginx incorrectly handled escaped "?" character in the
   "include" SSI command.

*) Bugfix: the ngx_http_dav_module did not unescape destination URI 

```

of  
the COPY and MOVE methods.

```
*) Bugfix: resolver did not understand domain names with a trailing 

```

dot.  
Thanks to Yichun Z…

```
*) Bugfix: alerts "zero size buf in output" might appear in logs 

```

while  
proxying; the bug had appeared in 1.3.9.

```
*) Bugfix: a segmentation fault might occur in a worker process if 

```

the  
ngx\_http\_spdy\_module was used.

```
*) Bugfix: proxied WebSocket connections might hang right after
   handshake if the select, poll, or /dev/poll methods were used.

*) Bugfix: the "xclient" directive of the mail proxy module 

```

incorrectly  
handled IPv6 client addresses.
