Disclaimer: The benchmarks below do not represent any competition.
            They don't represent any weak spots of the mentioned terminals. They are all high quality stuff.
            The sole purpose of these benchmarks is to give an idea as to where the Terminal ctrl's "engine" performance stands ATM.

Note: All benchmarks are repeated 50 times, automatically.
      The performance difference between GCC/CLANG builds is negligable.
      The latest stable versions of the mentioned terminals are used in these tests (as of May-June 2020).
