I think the point made my Bryan and Katie (and I have to agree with them) is that there's no way to see at a glance if we reached acceptable performance or not. The color code currently used is misleading (e.g. why is the Linux perf of importing a 3000 events calendar green? it's far from acceptable, if it's just to see that it is better than 0.5, it's easy to see at a glance...)

Proposal: use a color code that's relevant to the 0.6 targets (as described in http://wiki.osafoundation.org/bin/view/Projects/PerformanceProject).
. red: perf is currently double the targetted acceptable value (200%)
. orange: perf is between 150% and 200% the targetted acceptable value
. yellow: perf is between 100% and 150% the targetted acceptable value
. green: perf is at or better than the targetted acceptable value

Cheers,

If feasible, it would be useful to have an added column that tracks how
the current time compares to the target time for 0.6 release (at least
in the short term).

I considered this, and stearns requested this as well, but I don't see
that adding much value. The reason is that our targets are so simple and
uniform: 1 second for all cases except startup and importing 3000
events. You can see at a glance how 1.2 seconds compares to 1 second...
