Hey, thanks for the feedback. - In the timeline grid, I agree showing coordinates is not useful. I have disabled that - The rounding: yes, it is pretty stupid to show "revision 71807.4". That goes away once coordinates are disabled though.
I think this is a clear way to show performance for non developers and is great even for developers, it is a win win website :)
I'm very glad to hear that. That was exactly my intention when starting the project :-D I had to scratch my itch of wanting to better follow pypy's performance as a common python developer, but I also recognized that being such a performance oriented project, pypy badly needed good performance regression monitoring and progress tracking.

So one tiny pony I have is that on the tablular timeline page (http://speed.pypy.org/timeline/) that when you mouseover a graph it doesn't show the "coordinates" on graphs of those sizes I don't think it adds any value, and it's farily distracting.
For a start it could be removed (that should be pretty easy)
Actually, if you added units to those numbers, they could answer important questions like "is a higher line better or is a lower line better?"
Yes but axis should be named in a always visible place, so when people see the graphs they know what they mean.
but as a second step it would be interesting to highlight and maybe show the revision or time of the closest point (if revision then highlight all points of that revision).
Some kind of rounding would be nice, as seeing "0.6 seconds in revision 71807.4" is a bit weird.
No rounding but actually showing the data for the closest point and not where the mouse is over.
Very shiny website, BTW, I love it.
