    Update 3.3 release notes.

       benchmark tests.
    
     * Add an image macro keep the tradition going.
    
     * Update docs section with a 5.3.0 PR which just merged.
    
     * Add reference to the newly merged `couchjs -v` enhancement.

 =============
 
+Highlights
+----------
+
+* :ghissue:`4308`: Replicator was optimized and should be faster. It now uses
+  the `_bulk_get` endpoint on the source, and can statistically skip calling
+  `_revs_diff` on the target. Benchmark tests replicating 1M documents, 10KB
+  each, from UK to US East show a 3x speed improvement.
