+This is an efficient C++ implementation of the Cassowary constraint solving
+algorithm. Kiwi(solver) is an implementation of the algorithm based on the
+seminal Cassowary paper. It is not a refactoring of the original C++ solver.
+Kiwi(solver) has been designed from the ground up to be lightweight and fast.
+It ranges from 10x to 500x faster than the original Cassowary solver with
+typical use cases gaining a 40x improvement. Memory savings are consistently
+> 5x.
