Professional 1.5rc2

Summary: PortSwigger released Burp Suite Professional 1.5rc2 on Friday, 5 October 2012, fixing a number of minor bugs. The release removes the host, port, and protocol fields from the Burp Repeater UI to conserve screen space, since those details are populated automatically and can be changed by clicking the target server label, and further refines memory handling to reduce the memory footprint and improve resilience in low memory conditions.

Bottom line: The change targets memory pressure during active scanning, where a scanner that degrades in low memory conditions can stall or drop work mid-assessment.
