Pretty impressive.

When I published Grisu (Google double-conversion), it was multiple times faster than the existing algorithms. I knew that there was still room for improvement, but I was at most expecting a factor 2 or so. Six times faster is really impressive.

Thank you! It means a lot coming from you, Grisu was the first algorithm that I implemented =). (I am the author of the blog post.)
