Linux laptop with cpython 3.10 (Mint 21.3 x86_64) powered by Intel Pentium N6000 (E-cores/Atom JSL) encoding: 0.008716974987931236 GB/s decoding: 0.03147893895000613 GB/s Reduced iterations to 10, likewise, and this looks *slower* than 49..53 MiB/s of USB HS. I saw it try to compile cobs-1.2.1.tar.gz but then discard and use cobs-1.2.0-py3-none-any.whl
