Test PASSED: Output matches reference

FPGA Time         :     0.4240 s
FPGA Throughput   :   839.4765 MB/s
CPU  Time         :    28.9083 s
CPU  Throughput   :    12.3133 MB/s
FPGA Speedup      :    68.1764 x
----------------------------------------------------------------------------

From the console output, it is clear that acceleration achieved when compared to CPU is 68x. The achieved throughput is 839 MB/s, which is close to the estimated throughput of 900 MB/s; it only differs by 6.66 percent.
