Have you tried https://k6.io/ ? (Full disclosure: I'm one of the maintainers.)
It allows you to write load/performance tests in JS, commit them to your repo, easily automate them in CI, send metrics to several backends, use protocols besides HTTP, with a modern CLI, and many more features.
There's also a Postman-to-k6 converter[1]. The conversion might not be perfect, but it will give you a head start.
Note that the k6 philosophy is for developers to write these tests, similarly to how you write unit/integration tests, and to break the classic QA-dev cycle.
I don't want to steal Hurl's thunder, it does look great, but it's limited in features compared to existing peformance testing tools, and I'd personally rather write tests in a programming language, than in a bespoke text format.

xk6-sql
www.bulkcompress.photos is just an optimized GUI of the above function. I’ve also added support for resizing and converting images into another format. Finally, to improve performance, I used the worker pool I’ve developed for my load testing tool: https://github.com/denoload/denoload.
