 This (unregistered) Julia package exposes a function `corkendall` that is a candidate to replace the function of the same name in the StatsBase package.
 
-The package also contains a function `speedtest` that prints a comparison of the execution speed of two (or more) implementations of Kendall Tau. `speedtest` demonstrates that the new version of `corkendall` is about ~~five~~ ~~six~~ seven times faster than the existing StatsBase version. See [# 634](https://github.com/JuliaStats/StatsBase.jl/issues/634).

 ## Update February 2024
 The code of `corkendall` from this package was incorporated in StatsBase on 8 February 2021 (see [this](https://github.com/JuliaStats/StatsBase.jl/commit/11ac5b596405367b3217d3d962e22523fef9bb0d) commit).
 
 More recently I have made further changes:
 
-1) The function is now multi-threaded. On a PC with 12 cores and 20 logical processors this gives an approximate 12 times speed-up relative to `StatsBase.corkendall`
+1) The function is now multi-threaded. On a PC with 12 cores and 20 logical processors this gives an approximate 9 times speed-up relative to `StatsBase.corkendall`
 2) `KendallTau.corkendall` now has a `skipmissings` keyword argument, to control the treatment of missing values.
 3) A new function `corkendall_fromfile` takes arguments as names of csv files containing the input and output data.

 ## Performance
 In the REPL output below, note the large reduction in number and size of allocations. This was key to obtaining the full benefit of multi-threading.

-I wish to compute Kendall Tau for a set of 32,000 time series, each having observations every weekday over a four year period. Such a calculation takes some 42 minutes on my PC (Windows 11, 12th Gen Intel(R) Core(TM) i7-12700, 2100 Mhz, 12 Core(s), 20 Logical Processors), with Julia 1.8.5.
