 How [ImageScript](https://github.com/matmen/ImageScript) compares to other image libraries for Node.js: speed, file
 sizes and what installing each takes. ImageScript is plain JavaScript with no dependencies, so it runs wherever
 JavaScript does, like Jimp, image-js and PureJsImage; sharp and @napi-rs/canvas wrap native libraries (libvips, Skia),
-Photon and ImageScript 1 are WebAssembly.
+Photon and ImageScript 1 are WebAssembly, and so is jsquash (Squoosh's libavif and libjxl, for AVIF and JPEG XL).

 ## Method
 
 - Inputs (in `inputs/`, sources in [inputs/SOURCES.md](inputs/SOURCES.md)): a 1920×1080 photo (JPEG, and made from it
-  when the benchmark starts, PNG and lossy WebP), a 1434×1434 graphic with transparency (PNG), a 445×445 diagram with
-  transparency placed on the photo (PNG), a 300×300 GIF with 101 frames.
+  when the benchmark starts, PNG, lossy WebP, AVIF by sharp (libaom) and JPEG XL by jsquash (libjxl, effort 7), both
+  at the qualities below), a 1434×1434 graphic with transparency (PNG), a 445×445 diagram with transparency placed on
+  the photo (PNG), a 300×300 GIF with 101 frames.
+- AVIF and JPEG XL are encoded at the same nominal quality (60 and 90); as the libraries' scales differ,
+  the file sizes come with their PSNR (of the color over black, decoded by libavif and libjxl). PureJsImage's AVIF
+  encoder has no quality option, and its JPEG XL decoder doesn't support everything libjxl's files use, which shows as
+  failing. jsquash only encodes and decodes AVIF and JPEG XL (it gets the other inputs as pixels); @napi-rs/canvas
+  decodes both with Skia's codecs, but doesn't encode them.
 - Rendering: "The quick brown fox jumps over the lazy dog, 0123456789" in Source Sans 3 at 64px, and `tests/svgs/features.svg` (gradients, clipping,
   CSS) at 1920 pixels wide. Jimp, image-js, PureJsImage and Photon can't render TrueType/OpenType fonts or SVGs; ImageScript 1 crashes
   on this SVG; @napi-rs/canvas (Skia's SVG module) ignores its CSS, so it draws a little less.
@@ -74,6 +90,9 @@ Encoded sizes:
 - Where the library lets you choose, resizing is bilinear (ImageScript 1 only has nearest neighbor), blurring is
   gaussian with a radius or sigma of 5, rotating grows the image to fit. Each library uses its own defaults
   otherwise, e.g. its PNG compression level.
+- Threads: ImageScript uses worker threads where they pay off (the processors available, at most 8), and sharp gets
+  as many (`sharp.concurrency()`; its default on glibc Linux without jemalloc, like on CI, is one). The other
+  libraries run on one thread (jsquash turns its threaded builds off in Node).
