I run an open-source Go library that also does packet capture/encode/decode (http://code.google.com/p/gopacket). Would you be at all interested in adding results for gopacket to your benchmarks page? If so, I'm happy to write up the code to actually run the benchmarks, then send it over to you so it can be run on your benchmarking machine.

That would be great! I think that adding more libraries to the benchmark would be just great. This is the project I've created to run the benchmarks:

You can have a look at some of the existing benchmarks so you get an idea of what it has to do. Let me know if you need any help.

Any news on windows compile?

I've managed to compile it on Windows using Visual Studio. It's in my TODO list to write a tutorial on the site on how to do so. Hopefully I'll do that on the next few days.

Will be on the look out for it :) You are doing great work!

Excellent! I'll try to send you a pull request sometime Monday or Tuesday.
