Thats fair -

My inclination for anything in Contrib off the top is to keep it at 1.4 if its already at 1.4 - especially concerning language constructs and what not.

However, this task is already in, it's nice to have, and thats enough to sway me here.

The point that really gets me is that Benchmark is in contrib, and works with other contrib modules - if other contrib modules can be 1.5, it makes sense that they should work with Benchmark in my opinion.

If this was "some java 1.5 generics" or what not snuck in - I would say remove it and make it 1.4. But remove a task that adds value and lets you compare Highlighter approaches? I'd vote to keep it.

And read the comments from both of you below :).

I soooo wanted to use generics in Benchmark in that patch :).
