- Users can select a new iteration key node and iteration boundaries directly in TensorBoard.
- Data will automatically aggregate all profile data with the key node and iteration boundaries.
- All reports and views dynamically generate results base on last profile data aggregation.

Known Issues
- Networks profiled in previous releases are not compatible with this release.
- Firefox Alert: Google’s TensorBoard v1.15 is not compatible with Firefox version 82.0.3 (64-bit) or greater. Consequently, the DLProf plugin shows a blank or empty screen.
Corrective Action: Either downgrade to FireFox version 81.0.2 (64-bit) (and turn off the auto upgrade feature), or use the Chrome, Opera, or Chromium browser instead.
Resolved Issues
- None
