-## Overview
-
-This project holds a [couple of tests](./src/test/java/com/baeldung/jctools/JCToolsUnitTest.java) which illustrate JCTools specifics and a [benchmark](./src/main/java/com/baeldung/jctools/MpmcBenchmark.java) in the [JMH](http://openjdk.java.net/projects/code-tools/jmh/) format.  
-
-## How to build and run the JMH benchmark
-
-Execute the following from the project's root:  
-```bash
-mvn clean install
-java -jar ./target/benchmarks.jar MpmcBenchmark -si true
-```
