+## 0.25.6
+
+- Show upstream Hyper client generation, request budget progress, generation age and rotation count in the live **Backends** diagnostics table, sourced from the same `/api/events` status snapshots as the existing backend metrics.
+- Retain the configurable backend client generation recycling and HTTP/1 buffer ceiling introduced in 0.25.5.
+- Keep SQLite schema 8 and the existing configuration format; no migration is required from 0.25.5.
+
 ## 0.25.5
 
+- Bound long-lived backend Hyper client generations with configurable request-count and age recycling, add a configurable upstream HTTP/1 read-buffer ceiling, and expose per-backend rotation diagnostics without reloading vhosts or purging cache.
 - Expand Prometheus/Grafana coverage with bounded Traffic analytics for countries, fixed User-Agent families, methods, status classes, cache outcomes, routes and serving source; add explicit built-in Web Server inventory/source metrics while keeping raw IPs, paths and full User-Agent values out of Prometheus labels.
 - Add an About dialog in the dashboard top bar with project author, open-source notice and source repository link; rename the top-bar Docs action to Documentation.
 - Replace the always-expanded mobile dashboard navigation with a compact on-demand Menu control that closes after section selection, Escape or an outside click; desktop navigation is unchanged.
