-The following benchmark.zsh takes 8ms to generate the file.
+The following two benchmarks show on my dell xps13 9380
+* it takes 5ms to generate a sourceable script from a dozen or so repos
+* it takes an additional 15ms for zsh to load said script
 
 ```zsh
 # install hyperfine for benchmarking
-cargo install hyperfine
+$ which hyperfine || cargo install hyperfine

+# run 
+$ hyperfine --warmup 3 'zsh -d -f -l -c "source benchmark.zsh && zrinit && exit"' 'zsh -d -f -l -c "source benchmark.zsh && . <(zrinit) && exit"'
