I'd be suspicious too if I said any mud rather than a mud. That MUDs have been run on much weaker hardware is a fact. Also I didn't write that in a vacuum, I wrote that as a response to a comment which establishes the context

Is that single-threaded libmagic vs Magika using every core on the system? What are the numbers like if you run multiple libmagic instances in parallel for multiple files, or limit both libmagic and magika to a single core? Testing it on my

Going by those number it's taking almost a second to run, not 10s of ms. And going by those numbers, it's doing something massively parallel in that time. So basically all your cores will spike to 100% for almost a second during t
