Hi all! I've noticed nofib depends on external packages, such as vector. So when vector is updated we have a benchmark result change even without compiler changes. I guess we need to use fixed version. When some package has major updates we do have to pick we should rename benchmark because it's not the same benchmark.

well, the version of vector we use is fixed via git submodules. So in a sense, GHC contains vector, and if someone bumps the vector version via a git commit, this commit has an effect on our benchmarks – not much difference to other commits changing GHC code. Also note that nofib depends on base and the Prelude. Again, not much difference.
