Use releases as x-axis in benchmarks #2083

Closed zlumyo closed 1 year ago

zlumyo commented 2 years ago

Benchmarks on landing page use commits as x-axis. IMHO, for average visiter it's more natural to see progress through releases instead of countless and (often) meaningless commits. Or at least provide a switch between two modes.

If we limited it to releases, we would not see what specific commits improved or regressed performance. While it is part of the public website, it really isn't designed to be a "marketing tool" for Deno, but to provide critical information to the people building Deno.

 Of course, for a developer or an advanced user commits are more valuable. So if these benchmarks isn't design to be a "marketing tool" (although it could be), this discussion can be closed.

Closing due to points provided by Kitson.
