I think lots and lots of benchmarks are useful internally. They highlight where the soft spots are. This is however very different from publishing benchmark results.
As a dbaas vendor we should publish benchmarks that your user base really cares about which demonstrate that the system is mature and can handle the core workload your users expect you to handle. That is why publishing an OLAP benchmark results for an OLTP system makes very very little sense.
(BTW OLAP systems like Clickhouse should really publish TPC-DS SF1000+ results)
For OLTP systems there is TPC-C but it's actually not that telling as it is so simple. I can start seeing that people in OLTP care more and more about latencies, hence all the edge related work and optimization of the drivers.
So Neon will be publishing end-to-end latencies benchmarks and also make sure it is on par with vanilla Postgres on a broad set of benchmarks. Those we will run internally and the results will simply be commits on our github.
