i think games need to give more feedback on graphics / system usage. I want to see feedback like this (after a test): Graphics Memory was exceeded by X mb. The higher X is the more slower down you will experience. Reducing texture quality will reduce x. System memory was exceeded by X mb. CPU usage x%, graphics usage x%. etc. Getting the most out of your game is very important. Giving feedback like this will give the user a better indication of what is causing bad frame rate. I hate guessing and fiddling with my graphics options to see what happens.

It would definitely be nice to have something like that in the confines of an official benchmarking tool. No need to have those things enabled as the game runs normally. You could select all of the graphics options you want, the number of players, maps, mods etc. and just load them. Let the tool benchmark for a while and see how it goes.

That would be pretty useful.
