Benchmarks

Benchmarking extracting all files from ISOs across various systems against wit:

System 1

(Linux 5.9, 16 GB, AMD Ryzen 9 4900HS)

Command	Mean [ms]	Min [ms]	Max [ms]	Relative
`wit x melee.iso ./extracted`	727.1 ± 11.1	716.1	769.0	2.20 ± 0.05
`gcm extract melee.iso ./extracted`	331.1 ± 6.2	321.9	345.9	1.00

System 2

(Windows 10, Ryzen 7 3700X, on SSD)

Command	Mean [s]	Min [s]	Max [s]	Relative
`wit x GALE01.iso ./extracted`	8.551 ± 2.532	6.942	15.378	2.09 ± 0.83
`gcm extract GALE01.iso ./extracted`	4.092 ± 1.082	3.056	5.732	1.00

(Windows 10, Ryzen 7 3700X, on HDD, in single thread mode)

Command	Mean [s]	Min [s]	Max [s]	Relative
`wit x GALE01.iso ./extracted`	10.452 ± 1.812	8.898	13.982	1.00
`gcm extract --single-thread GALE01.iso ./extracted`	11.810 ± 1.838	9.372	14.135	1.13 ± 0.26

System 3

(Windows 10, on HDD, multithreaded mode)

Command	Mean [s]	Min [s]	Max [s]	Relative
`wit x melee.iso ./extracted`	109.495 ± 6.301	105.039	113.950	1.20 ± 0.25
`gcm extract melee.iso ./extracted`	91.584 ± 18.295	78.647	104.520	1.00

Note: Multithreaded mode will harm performance if the ISO is on some form of physical media, such a hard drive.
