Given numerous bugs about printing spool sizes being too big, causing printing to be slow, it would be good to keep track of stats on:
1) The size of the PDF sent to the printer. (All platforms)
2) The size of the converted EMF file. (Windows)
3) The size of the converted PostScript file. (Windows)
4) The size of the rasterized PWG file. (Platforms that support Print Preview, so not Android)
For the above, we would want size divided by number of pages, and maybe also the absolute size. We will always keep track of (1) for a print job, whereas (2), (3) and (4) are only when applicable.
This is not a replacement for a benchmark, but it may help alert us to potential regressions in the printing pipeline.
