Summary

A user-created benchmark for comparing local TTS tools, with results for Windows and Mac, and Linux testing pending. Includes an HTML results page and GitHub repository.

I was tired of not having a proper TTS related benchmark that I can use and test for personal projects, so I had to make one. Hopefully this helps those looking for running local TTS tools. Has Windows and Mac results already.
