imho it's good to remove outdated performance comparisons or at least 
update them against current versions. If not publishing any data is a 
goal(?) then a reference to the trusted "online benchmarks" should be 
made. There are tons of passionate people who or may not mean well, but 
publish worthless garbage.

To avoid trolls - It may be best to ping the community leaders on irc or 
via email and coordinate with them.
