Well generically the idea of a community is that everyone
contribute -- part of that is talk, but the part that sticks
is making repository commits :)

You'd think a project admit would be scared of someone spamming
the repository, making a mess, or some other such thing .. yeah,
that's a worry. But it seems most people are so scared of being
the mess maker themselves they need a lot of encouragement
to commit anything :)

Heck, it took me ages to get RF to commit the async code.

Take a lesson from Erick. He jumped in quickly, did lots
of commits, got some of them reverted by me, reverted some
of mine .. got jumped on for breaking things sometimes ..
but the build system is in much better shape because of it.

So where to performance tests go? Well there is a 
'speed' system for measuring performance. It won't
handle the class of problem we have here: comparing
Felix versions against each other, or comparing
two Felix algorithms against each other.

So that's where performance tests should go .. but
there's no place for them in the existing structure.
It's an open question what to do about this.

Ideally the speed test stuff should be a separate project.
