The bar chart seems to be missing bars for CPython. While the legend shows grey for CPython the chart itself only shows blue PyPy bars. The text is much too low-contrast. Please don't use pale grey text on a white background, that is very difficult to read, especially for those of us who are no longer 16 with perfect 20:20 vision. If I'm reading the CSS properly, the page uses #a8b1b6 for the "muted" text ("PyPy trunk (with JIT) benchmark times...") -- that might as well be invisible. Actually, being invisible would be better for me, because then I wouldn't be straining my eyes trying to read it. The regular text seems to use #606c76 which I can read in small quantities, but not comfortably. It would be difficult to read large quantities of such grey text. (Although it does look nice when bolded, the extra weight makes a big difference.) https://www.contrastrebellion.com/ I don't know why the PyPy logo is shown in grey at the bottom of the page. For thirty years we've been educating users that grey is used for disabled or inactive elements, or text of lesser importance. I'm not saying make the logo screaming fluorescent green, but it shouldn't look like an inactive control. It should use the same blues as the main logo, just smaller. I especially like that there are no menus that pop out and annoy me every time I happen to mouse over parts of the page. The overall design seems nice and clean and not too "busy", which makes me happy. Fix the graph and increase the text contrast a bit and I'll like it a lot.
