It is unclear how to reproduce the presented benchmark results from the "View the benchmark" link

Currently, the "View the benchmark" link (see image above) only takes to the corresponding GitHub repo. However, neither repo is specifically about comparing Solid's performance to other frameworks.

This makes it unclear how to reproduce the presented benchmark results, and any skeptical reader would remain unconvinced of Solid's strong performance. In other words, the benchmark section would not succeed in serving its purpose unless there's an easy way to reproduce the results.

@bobaekang thanks for the suggestion. I don't fully agree with that. The repository in question was linked because it maintains the full source code and instructions (specifically section 1.7) for viewing the results. So that should disengage the concern about reproducing.

In regards to being convincing, any and all benchmarks should be questioned. It kind of goes with the territory. The two benchmarks in question are the most recognised in the Javascript framework space and are the best representation of performance of all frameworks relative to each other. I'm not really sure what we could be doing to be more convincing except linking this. Of course I'm always open to suggestions though.

I'll close this out for now as my answer but feel free to reopen or engage further.
