I am sorry but I am far from catching my emails:

Best thing is to work with TPC-E benchmarks involving the community.  
(TPC-C requirements is way too high on storage and everybody seems to be 
getting on the TPC-E bandwagon slowly.)

Where can I get the latest DBT5 (TPC-E) kit ? Using the kit should allow 
me to recreate setups which can then be made available for various 
PostgreSQL Performance engineers to look at it.

Jignesh
