           Summary: performance tests should be able to measure runs/sec
                    rather than time
           Product: WebKit
           Version: 528+ (Nightly build)
          Platform: Unspecified
        OS/Version: Unspecified
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: Tools / Tests
        AssignedTo: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org

It is helpful to measure runs/sec for a fixed time because as we speed up tests and hardware gets faster, the precision of measurement gets worse.

I think Morita did a one off change to support Dromaeo tests (which measure hertz), but we should roll this ability directly into PerformanceTests/resources/runner.js so non-Dromaeo tests can also use hertz.
