 Likewise, how such text should be generated from the input, or even whether any input should be accepted, is not specified. `fastjson.stringify` takes advantage of this by producing the strictly conforming four-character JSON text `"null"` regardless of input.
 
+## Performance
+The `fastjson` functions have demostrated to be between 4,000,000 and 40,000,000 times faster than their built-in `JSON` equivalents on large amounts of data. The benchmarks are open source and [located in this repo](https://github.com/qntm/fastjson/tree/main/benchmarks/).

 ## Notes
 
 * `fastjson` is not a drop-in replacement for the built-in functions `JSON.parse()` and `JSON.stringify()` specified in [ECMA-262§§24.5.1-2](https://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/11.0/index.html#sec-json-object).
