If we see activity in that area, then we can decide on whether it will be
less time to create our own perf suite within the constraints of Apache or
go through the hassle of getting these tests donated and separated from
their server dependencies.

We burned out at least two engineers trying to create an automated perf
suite. I was not involved. But from the email trail, it was not a smooth
process.
