 to be fast, simple and easy to use, and should be able to run in any minimal
 POSIX-like environment with ncurses installed.
 
+**NEWS FLASH!** Ncdu 2.5 adds support for parallel scanning, but it's not
+(yet?) enabled by default. To give it a try, run with `-t8` to scan with 8
+threads. If you're running an unusual setup, such as networked storage, odd
+filesystems, complex RAID configurations, etc, I'd love to hear about the
+performance impact of this new feature. Feedback is welcome on the [issue
+tracker](https://code.blicky.net/yorhel/ncdu/issues) or through mail @
+[projects@yorhel.nl](mailto:projects@yorhel.nl).

+If you want to run benchmarks, `-0 --quit-after-scan` can be useful to disable
+the browser interface, or run with `-0o/dev/null` to benchmark JSON export.
