I presume you looked at the pypy benchmark suite, which contains a large collection of library-based benchmarks.

Not in a long time, I admit...

So it sounds like:

• we should drop regex_v8, telco, and spectral_norm *Having an explanation as to what a benchmark is meant to exercise wouldn't go amiss
• Pyston and PyPy have potential benchmarks to steal (although they need to work with at least Python 3.5 to be considered)

Anyone want the satisfaction of deprecating those benchmarks? How about writing a README file for what each of the benchmarks are for (which will become the README for the future GitHub repo)? And do we want the Pyston and PyPy folks to nominate benchmarks they think we really should add (with a wild hope of finally having a single suite that everyone at least starts from), or should some cpython devs look s at what PyPy and Pyston have and raid their benchmarks?
