 Bitcoin Core has an internal benchmarking framework, with benchmarks
 for cryptographic algorithms such as SHA1, SHA256, SHA512 and RIPEMD160. As well as the rolling bloom filter.
 
+Running
+---------------------
 After compiling bitcoin-core, the benchmarks can be run with:
-`src/bench/bench_bitcoin`
+
+    src/bench/bench_bitcoin
 
 The output will look similar to:
 ```

+
+Notes
+---------------------
 More benchmarks are needed for, in no particular order:
 - Script Validation
 - CCoinDBView caching
