I would like to see the benchmarks myself

Not as benchmarks per se, but as regression alerts.

Brian already has tweaked the parser so that the number of parser collisions are only allowed to go down over time, never up.

I think that a time series of benchmarks should be treated the same way, losing benchmark metrics between checkins should be potentially considered a bug.

Such a pity that we cant trust the users and the salesman to not use them...

I agree, of course.

In direct response to Sheeri though... I know a guy who has a whole big dbt2-running set up in his basement who runs lots of benchmarks against
MySQL who is waiting for the go ahead to start benchmarking drizzle...

Nothing wrong with benchmarking now, just don't make those results known. It might actually be good to get the baselines while development is happening anyway...

But yeah, I completely agree -- even if there wasn't a resource issue, it's kinda silly to publish benchmarks when there isn't even a release version yet. that's the exact kind of "hype you up" crap that I've seen very often, and it's best not to do much of that, lest you disappoint folks who expect the world.
