[racket-dev] Performance regression testing?

Generally, I look at the DrDr timing graphs and the run-length
overall. The first is good for discrete tests that do benchmarking
(such as tests/racket/benchmarks and tests/racket/stress) or are very
expensive, like the TR tests. The second is good when Matthew does
some VM-level optimization---for example, today DrDr takes about 55
minutes per revision, but it used to be more like 1.15 hours and now
it is testing *more* stuff.
