[https://rubybench.org/](https://rubybench.org/) is displaying app\_aobench as the front page, it seems a bit odd of a choice.

Can we add a “no benchmark selected” option which tells a bit about the project.

It is also unclear that there are 2 modes (per commit vs release) this needs to be clarified on the "no bench selected mode.

Looks good, but we don’t need history there,

~~RubyBench was born after Sam Saffron’s call for a long running Ruby benchmark.~~

RubyBench is a long running Ruby benchmark.

Also home page should spell out where the repos for contributing are and where the discussion area is.

Also, don’t link to [http://goperfd.appspot.com/](http://goperfd.appspot.com/) … we should only link to ruby related things on our front page.
