I think we all generally agree that high-level benchmarks are good and micro-benchmarks aren't that important for cross-implementation comparisons (obviously they have a usefulness when trying to work on a specific feature set, but that should be considered specific to an implementation and not to some globally accepted set of benchmarks). So we should identify benchmarks which somewhat represent real world workloads and try to have a balanced representation that doesn't lean one way or another (e.g., not all string manipulation or scientific computing, but both should obviously be represented). > "speed.python.org" becoming a thing is generally stopped on "noone > cares enough to set it up". > Oh, I know.
