To Summarize: * Gitlab CI pushes performance results to the [https://gitlab.haskell.org/ghc/ghc-performance-notes GHC Performance Notes] repo. * This is important for logging performance metrics. * When running performance tests, establish baseline (expected) performance values from older commits (not just the previous one) and even use performance numbers pushed from gitlab CI. * This should greatly improve usability: for many common workflows this will succeed in establishing a baseline where the previous method would fail. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/12758#comment:22 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
