Yes, that's me. I'm mostly out of time right now, but I'd like to offer help if someone wants to pick up the project.

For those who haven't heard about it, it's a system designed specifically to track performance of FreeBSD over time by comparing revisions of FreeBSD, everything else being equal. It consists of a tinderbox-like build script for a build server, a script to install FreeBSD and run benchmarks on at least one slave, and a database-backed website to aggregate and visualize results.

The framework does work as-is, but it really needs to be updated: convert the scripts to use the SVN repo instead of CVS, improve visualization and search on the web fronted, and improve the benchmarking script so it's easier to extend. I don't have hardware available to run the benchmarks, but I think there's hardware available in the FreeBSD cluster.

Here's a link to the source code: http://dev.affect-it.dk/tracker.tgz
And to my thesis describing how it works: http://dev.affect-it.dk/tracker.pdf

Just send me a mail if you're interested.

Thanks,
