disclaimer: I work at GCP Let's not dream, let's get started! A few challenges (list gets longer every day, some asymmetric features), but I think it's a great idea. Since it's got to be grown/updated constantly, where should it live, maybe a github page? Benchmarks is pretty close via this: https://github.com/GoogleCloudPlatform/PerfKitBenchmarker I'm interested; what parts do you think you could contribute? It strikes me as a thing that's far more valuable if the community does it.
