Good idea. I have some advice on finalization (don't do it), and I
could write about how Racket tries to help when you can't follow that
advice.

 At line 109:
 +  (define max-val (apply max (map car measurements)))
 +  (define max-time (caddr (last measurements)))
 If you make multiple png at the same time, all of them get the same
 Peak and Duration.

Thanks! I had fixed that in http://github.com/racket/plt-build-plot,
but I forgot to update the service that uploads plot.rkt to the web
site. It will be fixed after the next run.

We've so far cut the peak memory use of a build by about 1/4 compared
to a v6.1.1 build.

Yes, peak memory use for me has now dropped from about 900MB to just
below 700MB.  Veeery nice :-)
