[pypy-dev] speed.pypy.org quick update

[Miquel Torres]

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'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.

Cheers!
Miquel
