This is not a simple question. Personally I prefer to show this info every
time, although it can be redundant. Just for check and for more simple
automatic processing.

When I run pgbench, I usually work with more releases together, so the
server version is important info.

I thought about something what I can simply import to Postgres or to R.
But maybe XML or JSON is a bad idea.

What about CSV? Any run can produce one row.
