+## Spotlight
+
+A huge thank you to **@SukkaW** this release! He noticed generation was painfully slow on large OpenAPI specs, traced it to several algorithmic bottlenecks, and fixed them. The result is a 10x-30x performance gain on larger specs, with meaningful improvements on smaller specs as well.
+
+We sent him $100 as a small token of appreciation.
