 Introduction
 ============
 
-LNT consists of two main parts, a server side web application for accessing and
-visualizing performance data, and client side utilities for easily generating
-and submitting data.
-
-LNT uses a simple and extensible format for interchanging data between the
-clients and the server; this allows the LNT server to receive and store data for
-a wide variety of applications. The web app currently contains a specialized
-viewer for LLVM nightly test data, and a generic viewer for visualizing
-arbitrary test reports.
+LNT is designed to be a generic infastrcture for performance testing. The LNT
+software itself consists of two main parts, a web application for accessing and
+visualizing performance data, and command line utilities to allow users to
+generate and submit test results to the server.
+
+If you are an LLVM developer who is mostly interested in just using LNT to run
+the test-suite against some compiler, then you should fast forward to the
+:ref:`quickstart` or to the information on :ref:`tests`.

 Both the LNT client and server are written in Python, however the test data
 itself can be passed in one of several formats, including property lists and
