Those aren't the only two possibilities.

We could 
- not add any of the benchmarks
- add only one of the benchmarks
etc

We know of several other possible benchmarks that have 250-500 line
programs, and we don't show them because they're simply too big.

There are other alternatives: you could show the programs on your own
website and we could link to them from 
http://shootout.alioth.debian.org/miscfile.php?sort=fullcpu&file=benchmarking&title=benchmarking

That's what we do with "Martin Richards’ Bench"


best wishes, Isaac
