One thing I wouldn't mind seeing is for it to cache the benchmark results to a file that it reads from if it exists, rather than perform the benchmark everytime the server starts up. With servers that are multi-CPU/core, running this benchmark (which uses up 90+% CPU on a core for a few seconds) obviously can impact on the performance of other processes (games servers) that are running on the same box, and no one likes lag spikes in their games.
