Yes -- I was mostly thinking about backdating in order to play "catchup"
when a new benchmark is introduced.
One thing I am looking at is how to best create a library of world
tarballs that can be used to populate a nfsroot (or hybrid of periodic
tarballs + binary diffs to save space). Then you could provide your
benchmark in a standardized format (start/end/cleanup scripts, etc) and
tell a machine "go and run this benchmark on every daily snapshot for
the last year and give me the numbers".
