 ### Additions and Improvements
 - Add access to an immutable world view to start/end transaction hooks in the tracing API[#5836](https://github.com/hyperledger/besu/pull/5836)
-- Layered transaction pool implementation is now stable and enabled by default. If you want still to use the legacy implementation, use `--tx-pool=legacy` [#5772](https://github.com/hyperledger/besu)
+- Layered transaction pool implementation is now stable and enabled by default. If you want still to use the legacy implementation, use `--tx-pool=legacy`. 
+  By default, the new transaction pool is capped at using 25MB of memory, this limit can be raised using `--layered-tx-pool-layer-max-capacity` options  [#5772](https://github.com/hyperledger/besu)
 - Tune G1GC to reduce Besu memory footprint, and new `besu-untuned` start scripts to run without any specific G1GC flags [#5879](https://github.com/hyperledger/besu/pull/5879)
 - Reduce `engine_forkchoiceUpdatedV?` response time by asynchronously process block added events in the transaction pool [#5909](https://github.com/hyperledger/besu/pull/5909)
