+Asynchronous HTTP Responses
+===========================
+
+New in GCDWebServer 3.0 is the ability to process HTTP requests aysnchronously i.e. add handlers to the server that generate their ```GCDWebServerResponse``` asynchronously. This is achieved by adding handlers that use a ```GCDWebServerAsyncProcessBlock``` instead of a ```GCDWebServerProcessBlock```. Here's an example:
+
+***Synchronous version***
+```objectivec
+[webServer addDefaultHandlerForMethod:@"GET"
+                         requestClass:[GCDWebServerRequest class]
+                         processBlock:^GCDWebServerResponse *(GCDWebServerRequest* request) {
+  
+  GCDWebServerDataResponse* response = [GCDWebServerDataResponse responseWithHTML:@"<html><body><p>Hello World</p></body></html>"];
+  return response;
+  
+}];
+```
+
+***Asynchronous version***
+```objectivec
+[webServer addDefaultHandlerForMethod:@"GET"
+                         requestClass:[GCDWebServerRequest class]
+                    asyncProcessBlock:^(GCDWebServerRequest* request, GCDWebServerCompletionBlock completionBlock) {
+  
+  // Do some async operation like network access or file I/O (simulated here using dispatch_after())
+  dispatch_after(dispatch_time(DISPATCH_TIME_NOW, (int64_t)(3 * NSEC_PER_SEC)), dispatch_get_global_queue(DISPATCH_QUEUE_PRIORITY_DEFAULT, 0), ^{
+    GCDWebServerDataResponse* response = [GCDWebServerDataResponse responseWithHTML:@"<html><body><p>Hello World</p></body></html>"];
+    completionBlock(response);
+  });

 Debug Builds & Custom Logging
 =============================
 
-When building GCDWebServer in "Debug" mode versus "Release" mode, GCDWebServer logs a lot more information and also performs a number of internal consistency checks. To disable this behavior, make sure to define the preprocessor constant ```NDEBUG``` when compiling GCDWebServer. In Xcode target settings, this can be done by adding ```NDEBUG``` to the build setting ```GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS``` when building in Release configuration (this is done automatically for you if you use CocoaPods).
+When building GCDWebServer in "Debug" mode versus "Release" mode, GCDWebServer logs a lot more information and also performs a number of internal consistency checks. To enable this behavior, define the preprocessor constant ```DEBUG=1``` when compiling GCDWebServer. In Xcode target settings, this can be done by adding ```DEBUG=1``` to the build setting ```GCC_PREPROCESSOR_DEFINITIONS``` when building in Debug configuration.
 
 It's also possible to replace the logging system used by GCDWebServer by a custom one. Simply define the preprocessor constant ```__GCDWEBSERVER_LOGGING_HEADER__``` to the name of a header file (e.g. "MyLogging.h") that defines these macros:
 
 ```
