ASV seems an interesting solution for visions.

From a technical perspective it seems the easiest to set up a separate repository in dylan-profiler. We can use Github Actions to benchmark and publish the results (ASV uses json for that).

The benchmarks can be published using Github Pages.

For writing benchmark we should upsample the series present in visions to obtain meaningful measurements.
