Hmm, I've already started to implement a DB store using SQLalchemy. Can
Django use that? (it is in the repository at
http://codespeak.net/svn/pypy/build/benchmark)

Could prove interesting, and the DB structure I've got should be able
to deal with that as well (it is quite minimal). The runner that is there
is mostly useless for comparing different lanugagues though.

The intended next step is to interface a benchmark runner (of pypy trunk)
with the database so the results will be persistent. I've been caught up
in other (non-PyPy-related) work though. and if the database interface
I've got is not useful, maybe I shouldn't do that.
