The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

1000x speedup on interactive Mandelbrot zooms: from C, to inline SSE assembly, to OpenMP for multiple cores, to CUDA, to pixel-reuse from previous frames, to inline AVX assembly...
I verified that the limiting factor is memory bandwidth - and that once we switch to a fully CPU-bound mode (with option -p 100) the computation speed scales linearly with more cores.

1000x speedup on interactive Mandelbrot zooms: from C, to inline SSE assembly, to OpenMP for multiple cores, to CUDA, to pixel-reuse from previous frames, to inline AVX assembly...
And finally, to avoid thermal throttling issues and make the experiments repeatable, I wrote a script to wait for the CPU to cool down BEFORE running.
