This is great work but...please redo the charts to start at Zero and end at 50,000 to keep things consistent and prevent Edward Tufte from killing a kitten if he ever sees your charts.

I thought Tufte was OK with non-zero baselines: "The urge to contextualize the data is a good one, but context does not come from empty vertical space reaching down to zero, a number which does not even occur in a good many data sets. Instead, for context, show more data horizontally! " -- Edward Tufte, October 18, 2001 http://www.edwardtufte.com/bboard/q-and-a-fetch-msg?msg_id=0...

A non-zero baseline is fine in some cases (line chart of the temperature of a person with a fever for example), but the issues here were multiple charts at varying Y scale starting points, and bar size comparisons of a property that we do want to go to zero (zero failures).

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Because it's like complaining about the weather. It doesn't do anything to make things better. I think there's too much negativity on the Internet already.

There is too much negativity on the Internet, but there's also too much of just about everything else. The ease of publishing on the Internet means that people don't think too critically about their work prior to publishing it. For example, if these guys were publishing this benchmark as part of a study or argument in a quarterly magazine -- and this was there only opportunity to publish it for the next year or so --…

I don't think the comment I originally responded to was particularly civil. It was quite smug.
