 A lightning fast [JSON:API](http://jsonapi.org/) serializer for Ruby Objects.
 
-# Performance Comparision
+# Performance Comparison
 
 We compare serialization times with Active Model Serializer as part of RSpec performance tests included on this library. We want to ensure that with every change on this library, serialization time is at least `25 times` faster than Active Model Serializers on up to current benchmark of 1000 records.
 
 ## Benchmark times for 250 records
 
 ```bash
-  $ rspec
-  Active Model Serializer serialized 250 records in 138.71 ms
-  Fast JSON API serialized 250 records in 3.01 ms
+$ rspec

 ### Bumping Version
 
 It feels good to release code. Do it, do it often. But before that, bump
 the version. Then release it. There's a few ways to update the version:
 
-```ruby
+```bash
 # version:write like before
 $ rake version:write MAJOR=0 MINOR=3 PATCH=0
