While some of the changes in the `1.8.0` release have already been copied to WordPress Core in earlier releases (see [38727], [46258], [47902] and [49382]), this release contains additional improvements, including:
- A significant performance fix when using cURL.
- Improved compliance with RFC2616.
The library has also been moved under the WordPress project’s GitHub organization and can now be found at https://github.com/WordPress/Requests.

This introduces a minimum value of 1 second for timeouts passed to cURL.
Internally, cURL uses alarm() for interrupts, which accepts a second-resolution timeout. Any values lower than 1 second are instantly failed rather than being rounded upwards. While this makes the experience worse for those using asynchronous DNS lookups, there's no way to detect which DNS resolver is being used from PHP.
See #33055, #8923.
