Hi,
yeah, their project goals are to speed up things that are interesting for
them. Not to speed up things in general - but to speed up google projects
running on python. ie, they want to speed up their own code mostly. They
also run a number of python projects test suites, and use them to benchmark
too. I imagine they benchmark google apps internally too.
their recent talk describes their recent work - and also the work of
speedups like the wpython project:

wpython:
http://code.google.com/p/wpython/
http://wpython.googlecode.com/files/Beyond%20Bytecode%20-%20A%20Wordcode-based%20Python.pdf
The programming language shootout tests would seem a useful set of
benchmarks to compare against other languages.
eg.
http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/u32/benchmark.php?test=all&lang=pypy&lang2=python&box=1
Note, they have old pythons there... that is cpython 2.5.2 and pypy 1.1 in
their comparisons.
cheers,
ps. happy happy jit!! great work.
