As far as I know, it is very easily enforceable and quite common for enterprise software.

In certain countries that is even illegal to publish "benchmarks" like this one. I remember that there was a law like that in Germany - not sure whether it has changed with EU.

Wow, seriously? That’s unfortunate. I have a significant amount of bare metal storage space and computation resources and would be happy to host benchmarks like these.

My understanding is that in some places it's illegal for companies to publish benchmarks "proving" that their software is better than their competitors', the idea being that you're unlikely to show a fair comparison. I've not heard of it being illegal for a third party to post such a thing, though. Do you have a link? (I'm genuinely curious.)
