 MASlite is a simle python module for creating multi-agent simulations.
 
 - _Simple_ API: Only 3 modules to learn: Scheduler, Agent & Agent message
-- _Fast_: Handles up to 2.7 million messages per second
+- _Fast_: Handles up to 2.7M messages per second ([pypy, py310](./benchmark.py))
 - _Lightweight_: 52kB.
 
 It only has 3 components:
 
 - The scheduler (main loop)
   - handles pause and proceed with a single call.
   - assures repeatability in execution, which makes agents easy to debug.
-  - handles up to 2.7 million messages per second.
