Description

@timholy just implemented manual histogram bounds in https://github.com/JuliaCI/BenchmarkTools.jl/pull/255, but it occurred to me that when you display multiple benchmarks together (in an array, for example), then it would be even nicer to figure out common histogram bounds for all the benchmarks.

Research direction

Start by reading PR #255, which introduced manual histogram bounds, then trace how multiple benchmarks are displayed together, such as in an array. Define how the shared bounds should be chosen across those benchmarks and verify that the resulting histograms use common bounds when displayed together.
