I agree that pgbench is simple; perhaps really too simple when it comes to
being able to measure much more than basic query flows.  What pgbench does
have in its favor is being distributed with the core distribution.

I think there is definitely space for a more complicated benchmarking tool
that exercises more scenarios and more realistic query patterns and
scenarios.  Whether that is distributed with the core is another question.
