+Benchmarks website
+==================
+
+Currently, showing the results of benchmarks still requires manual
+intervention. With time, we want to automatize these tasks.
+
+How to add a new test to the benchmarks website
+-----------------------------------------------
+
+Current steps are:
+
+#. Create a new test in ``soledad/testing/tests/benchmarks``, and commit.
+#. Push it to ``ssh://0xacab.org/leap/soledad``.
+#. Wait until benchmarks stage finishes (so results are posted to elasticsearch).
+#. Update kibana visualizations and dashboards::
+
+    # currently, kibana configurations are in the `scripts` repository.
+    cd scripts/elastic/
+    ./generate-config.py
+    ./load.sh -url https://moose.leap.se:9200
+
+#. Update the benchmarks website::
+
+    # currently, website lives in the `puppet` repository.
+    cd puppet/modules/site_benchmarks/
+    vim generate-config
+    ./gen-dashboard-pages.sh
+    make
+    git commit -a -m "[benchmarks] update website with new tests"
+    git push
+
+TODO
+----
+
+The following steps are needed to have the website be updated automatically
+with all existing stats:
+
+- Move kibana-related stuff to the ``puppet`` repository.
+- Push kibana-related scripts to the server.
+- Have kibana be updated periodically with new tests (either using a cron job
+  and maybe also use the CI to trigger that?)
+- Modify website generation scripts so they run in the server to generate
+  static html (also cron and CI would be great here).
+- Enable nginx ssi.
+- Modify ``is-master-benchmarked.sh`` script to generate a simple html, include
+  the generated html in benchmark website.
