+Disclaimer: Executing the benchmark test on the Corstone-300 software will
+provide a general metric of instructions executed. The estimates are not cycle
+accurate, however it aligns to instruction per cycle, and is a consistent
+environment. This means it can detect if code changes changed performance.
+
+The person detection benchmark can also run with Ethos-U enabled, as the
+downloaded model will be optimized for Ethos-U. For more info see:
