I noticed that pgbench.sgml (or the manual elsewhere)
does not explicitly mention what TPS stands for;
I thought it might be useful to add.

(reason I checked: someone on #postgresql took tps
to mean 'tuples per second')

The previous paragraph already mentions this, doesn't it?

Although perhaps instead of saying "The last two lines report the
rate..." we could say "The last two lines report the number of
transactions per second...".

Robert's wording sounds good to me, committed that way.
