We have stated several times that MuPDF and therefore also our Python binding PyMuPDF ranges at the top when it comes to performance.

We have updated PyMuPDF's documentation to include some quantitative data that shed light on (Py-) MuPDF's performance.

Please do have a look at it - specifically at the following web page.

The numbers have been found for 32bit Python versions. I have seen performance improvements of about 10% to 15% on x64 versions - at least under Windows.
