+Runtime environment variables:
+- `ON_CPU`: set the value to '1' on Intel® Xeon® Processors. Default value is 0.

 The json version of the table (together with the json version of the benchmark) will be also attached to the markdown file.
 The raw benchmarking results (in the format of json files) are in the `Artifacts` tab of the benchmarking.
 
+The `compare-json-results.py` helps to compare benchmark results JSON files converted using `convert-results-json-to-markdown.py`.
+When run, benchmark script generates results under `benchmark/results` folder, along with the `benchmark_results.md` and `benchmark_results.json`.
+`compare-json-results.py` compares two `benchmark_results.json` files and provides performance ratio e.g. for Output Tput, Median TTFT and Median TPOT.

+Here is an example using the script to compare result_a and result_b without detail test name.
