 The compiler runtime tests in `perf/compiler` only complain if the perf
 gets worse by more than 5% or 10% or whatever (varies by test).

 I would '''love''' it if I could get a `nofib-analyse` style comparison of
 these benchmarks, comparing the compiler perf before and after some patch
 I've made.

 At the moment I simply can't do this comparison in a time-effective way.

 If we could generate a log-file in the right format, `nofib-analyse` might
 already do the job.
