In particular, after a running a test it would be ideal to have a repository where we could verify the configuration of the workload that was run, the results and any timing or transaction count data generated to bring all the log output into a central location.

PostgreSQL performance optimization is an ongoing process involving monitoring, benchmarking, and adjustments to maintain high-performing PostgreSQL databases. In production environments, it is observed that a large value for shared_buffer gives really good performance, though you should always benchmark to find the right balance.

HammerDB Variable or Step Workloads are an advanced testing feature that enables you to automatically vary the load on the database over a period of time. When taking this approach you would not focus on the test result but instead monitor the databases ability to cope with the variation in demand and transaction response times.

NOPM is a close relation of the official tpmC statistic recording only new orders per minute, however it is strictly forbidden to use the term tpmC unless you are doing an official fully audited and approved TPC-C benchmark and therefore the term NOPM signifies this difference. Therefore one question is why not just use NOPM?

HammerDB is a software application for database benchmarking. Databases are highly sophisticated software, and to design and run a fair benchmark workload is a complex undertaking. The Transaction Processing Performance Council (TPC) was founded to bring standards to database benchmarking, and the history of the TPC can be found here.
