deprecated and will be removed in the next release. PNaCl has used libc++
(which is much more up-to-date, currently based on LLVM 3.6) as the default
since Pepper 33.
+* PNaCl's experimental `Subzero translator`_ is available for x86-32 NaCl in
+ Chrome version 43, behind a flag. To give it a try, run Chrome with the
+ ``--enable-pnacl-subzero`` commandline flag, and use the ``optlevel 0``
+ :ref:`NaCl manifest option<pnacl_nmf_optlevels>`. Application startup time
+ should be several times faster than the previous LLVM-based ``optlevel 0``
+ mode, with similar code quality. Note that x86-32 NaCl requires a 32-bit
+ Chrome. On Windows, it also requires a 32-bit Windows OS, but 64-bit Linux
+ OSes can run x86-32 NaCl. If you try it out, please send us feedback
+ on `native-client-dev`_. We are working on improvements and adding
+ new targets.
