 We beat the `hashlib` standard library by 13.525 ns or 101703681.5 instructions. This was achieved using the `ctypes` library and the CPython-C-API.
 
+Disabling the GIL while manually managing threads with the `multithreading` API showed a massive speedup, achieved by reducing the median time spent in system mode by 42x. However, the single threaded version was still faster.
