-The graph below shows encoding results for input that is particularly challenging for tiktoken.
-The input consists of random ranges taken from the continuous list of all Unicode code points excluding whitespace.
-The performance of tiktoken shows a quadratic growth with the input size.
+The graph below shows encoding results when the input cannot be split in pre-tokenization and allows a better comparison of pure BPE performance.
+This case is particularly challenging for tiktoken, which shows a quadratic growth with the input size.
 The Huggingface encoder scales better, but becomes slower and slower compared to our implementation as input size increases.
