The PR benchmarks displays a comparison table with master that is very noisy, especially when no performance change is introduced:
Some ideas:
Fix the floating point numbers to max 2 digits of precision (with no random e-14 scientific notation introducing misalignment... but at the same time, we still need to be able to display tiny metrics!)
Finally, it would be nice to reuse the work from https://github.com/ocurrent/current-bench/pull/358 to only display the metrics that require further inspection, a big table of mostly 0.0001% hides the actually useful data.
