 ## Tests
 
    * techempower plaintext benchmark per https://www.techempower.com/benchmarks/#section=code
 
 ### wrk
 
+To run the plaintext benchmark using `wrk`:

    * example command: `wrk --connection 100 --duration 30s --threads 4 http://localhost:8080`
    * techempower plaintext benchmark: `wrk -c 256 -t 32 -d 15 -s ./benchmark/pipeline.lua --latency http://localhost:8080 -- 16`
 
+Note: For a real test, `wrk` should be running on its own server.
