@Michael - Unlike others I think it’s a shame that elephant murdering Go Daddy is sponsoring the plugin.
Ok ... let's take a look at why GoDaddy would decide to get into the plugin game.

Maybe because they hate Freedom, and want to choke off all that Free Expression people are doing on the Internet? Why might they want to do that? Perhaps because they are in the business of selling connection to and bandwidth for unfettered expression on the Internet ... and have an inexplicable need to damage their own interests?

Put into plain words, that doesn't sound too likely.

How about, GoDaddy is in the web-hosting business and (uh-oh), they monitor the loads their clients are subjecting their servers to; they see people putting these WordPress websites online, loading them to the gunwales with keen plugins (until, literally, folks at home can see their blog slowing the entire GoDaddy server-farm to a crawl) ... and they figure that maybe by handing out tools for measuring the loads imposed by plugins, and fostering an interest in the topic of load-monitoring, they might contribute to ... yeah, their own interests as a web server rental business.

Just spelled right out like that, it sounds kind of obvious.
