Fabulous.

But your email will soon disappear into the mists of time, and the page itself 
does not convey the same information.  

Is there a wiki page, kept up to date, that explains exactly how to read the 
performance results?

|  
|  Hi,
|  
|  the list of branches
|  on https://na01.safelinks.protection.outlook.com/?url=https%3a%2f%2fper
|  f.haskell.org%2fghc&data=01%7c01%7csimonpj%40064d.mgd.microsoft.com%7ce
|  c0ca8588956494efa3308d36baf36f5%7c72f988bf86f141af91ab2d7cd011db47%7c1&

|  It now shows the difference from the branch head to the merge base¹,
|  which should roughly exhibit the performance change that would be
|  caused by merging the branch into master.
|  
|  If the branch head or the merge base have not been measured (e.g.
|  because the build failed), the display might be a bit confusing. Same
|  with branches that often merge or cherry-pick from master. But in the
|  common case of a linear, possibly rebased, feature branch, it should
|  work fine.
|  
|  Greetings,

|  ¹ Which, I think, is the youngest commit also reachable from master. Or
|  something like that. Consult "man git merge-base" if you want a little
|  mind teaser.
