Hello,

I have a small library named pathlib (*) and I think it may be a good
candidate for a small benchmark since:
- it doesn't have any dependencies
- it doesn't need installing (the module is a single .py file)
- it supports Python 2.7 and Python 3.2+ in the same code base

I was thinking of a simple benchmark such as listing the entries of a
given directory (prepared by the benchmark), or perhaps globbing for a
specific file pattern.

What do you think?

Regards

Antoine.
