Performance improvements when it comes to large-scale SSD-based swap.
Improved in-kernel TLS acceleration
Ext4 filesystem improvements, with up to 64k in size of extended attributes and support for billions of directory entries.
Increased support of physical memory – from 64 terabytes to 4 petabytes
Vulnerability updates for Spectre and Meltdown, with other vulnerability patches for CPUs.
Cgroups can now set I/O latency targets and have support for block devices

Also included in this newest Debian 10 version update:

AppArmor is enabled by default
