#### Notes:
* Max = The maximum amount of memory seen during all the tests.  
        (You should see higher values in the real world when parsing multiple files in sequence,  
         normally garbage collection isn't guaranteed to happen after each parse, like here.
         This is the amount of ram you will typically need for parsing a single file)
             
* Delta = The amount of RAM being used at the end of the benchmark after a forced Garbage Colletion.  
          This shows how good or bad the library is at releasing its resources.

* Lib Overhead = Memory usage just after importing the library and running the setup()  
                 minus the baseline memory usage before importing the library.
