Description
From the Changelog:
We are proud to announce Piwik 2.13.0: a new major release of Piwik!
What’s new?
In this release we have focused on improving performance and making Piwik much faster at loading and archiving reports. The dashboard and All websites dashboard will load faster than ever before! This is especially visible if you measure many websites (hundreds of thousands) within your Piwik, the improved Websites Manager will now let you search for websites and page through the list, and the ‘All Websites’ dashboard will now load correctly.
Performance was not our only focus and we also improved the usability and design of some parts of Piwik (such as the Updater and maintenance mode, with more design updates coming in the next releases). Log Analytics, a very popular tool within the Piwik community, has received several improvements. Many other small bugs were closed, and a XSS security bug was reported and fixed in this release.
96 tickets have been closed by 8 contributors!

Oops just realised I forgot to reset the record_statistics variable in /web/stats.transitionnetwork.org/piwik/config/config.ini.php back to 1, this has been done now, it will mean there will be a gap in the data for a few hours for today, sorry about that.
