I noticed that https://perf.haskell.org/ghc/ still says "GHC Speed" in the
page title and the page header, so now I don't feel quite so silly for
making this mistake. If http://ghcspeed-nomeata.rhcloud.com/ is not
supported any more, how about adding a notice to that page pointing people
to https://perf.haskell.org/ghc/?
