It turns out that PR 9245 unfortunately broke benchmarking completely, sorry about that!
The bug is that we were attempting to reset the current instance of `StatTimer`, instead of creating a new one as was previously done. By resetting the current instance, the `StatTimer` data fetched in `test/driver.js` is now wiped out since it points to the *same* underlying object.
This re-use of a `StatTimer` instance was asked for during review, and unfortunately I didn't test this thoroughly enough before submitting the final version of the PR.[1]

[1] Note that while I did test the benchmarking scripts with that PR *before* initially submitting it, I did however forget to do that after addressing the review comments which might explain why this problem went unnoticed.
