I can't think of a more useless "test" other than anything put out by
the Alioth shootout.

The numbers have limited interest because they're not necessarily
using the *power* of the frameworks and merely measure the response to
what is essentially a static return value. It would be more
interesting to benchmark a simple guestbook in all of the things they
did. Guestbooks are relatively easy to write and would be
significantly more "test-worthy" than a "hello world" implementation.
