This is offtopic but I really wish that they re-added the graphs in the benchmarksgame.

This is quite useless compared to the old ones (it used to have a benchmark on each program and language and you could compare them)
You don't say which graphs you are complaining about, and you don't say why you think some other graphs were useful.

Those graphs show the same as they did in 2013:

I meant the last one. I did say exactly which graph I was complaining about.
So why do you "really wish that they re-added" that graph ?

What problem would that solve for you ?

What does that graph let you do that you cannot do now?
Easily compare in a cute format how a language does against another for a given problem regarding memory usage and time.
