Tsung has a way to monitor OS level information, and I guess adding the build/configuration would be... as easy as adding it to pgbench :) > And as a general commentary on the vision here, tsung will never fit into > this anyway because "something that can run on the buildfarm machines with > the software they already have installed" is the primary target.

I though we might talk about a performance farm which would be quite different, if only because to sustain a high enough client load you might need more than one injector machine targeting a given server at once. But if you target the buildfarm, introducing new dependencies does sound like a problem (that I can't evaluate the importance of).
