I would love to see Kraken taken for a spin by objective third parties in a fully transparent way that compared it to the available alternatives on equal footing. Sadly, a compression benchmark that doesn't detail the compiler, hardware, corpus, or even version of the libraries used is not very compelling. If others cannot reproduce your results, the results aren't of much value beyond marketing.
