It appears that performance profiles date back to at least 1996!
Watch out for the pitfalls of profiles!
julia> Pkg.add("BenchmarkProfiles")
No plotting backend is loaded by default so the user can choose among several available plotting backends. Currently, Plots.jl and UnicodePlots.jl are supported. Backends become available when the corresponding package is imported.
julia> using BenchmarkProfiles
julia> T = 10 * rand(25,3); # 25 problems, 3 solvers
julia> performance_profile(PlotsBackend(), T, ["Solver 1", "Solver 2", "Solver 3"], title="Celebrity Deathmatch")
ERROR: ArgumentError: The backend PlotsBackend() is not loaded. Please load the corresponding AD package.
julia> using Plots
julia> performance_profile(PlotsBackend(), T, ["Solver 1", "Solver 2", "Solver 3"], title="Celebrity Deathmatch") # Success!
