I'm more a "grep | cut | ..." person, but I do understand your point about
automation. My favorite hack is to load benchmark data into sqlite and
perform query to build data extract for gnuplot figures.
So I can put that in the stack of things to do when I have some time.
Due to the possibly repetitive table structure of the data, maybe CSV
would make sense as well. It is less extensible, but it is directly usable
by sqlite or pg.
