I really liked these benchmarks, and would check in with them from time to time. No benchmark is perfect, but these ones cover such a wide variety of different languages and frameworks, it's a good resource for getting a rough idea of the kind of performance that a given stack is capable of. I don't know much about TechEmpower the company, it seems to be a small consultancy, maintaining this project probably takes non insignificant resources from them. The end of the project seems kind of unceremonious, but they don't owe anything to anyone. Hopefully an active fork emerges.
