I have indeed tried the Advanced Portfolio report, but have a few problems with it:

1. It gives performance per currently owned security, but I am looking
   for overall performance of each securities account, including cash
   positions and securities which have been sold. In particular, I
   would like to compare the performance of self-managed accounts with
   those managed by banks.
2. The indicated return figures are presuably for the duration of
   ownership, whereas I would like to have figures for the past
   calendar year
3. It automatically selects all individual securities and won't let me
   select other asset accounts.  To minimize the accounting effort, I
   have configured my bank-managed accounts as generic asset accounts.
   To achieve the desired performance comparison, I need to be able to
   select the appropriate asset accounts myself.
4. Not critical, but it would be nice to have a graphic, such as those
   provided by the Asset Bar Chart or the Net Worth Line Chart.

Thanks for your help!

    I need some reports which show the performance of various

    suitable in GC 2.6.19 and don't have the chops (neither in
    accounting nor in guile) to write my own.  Surely I am not the
    first GC user with this need. The only thing I found which looks
    useful is gnucash-portfolio:

Have you tried the Advanced Portfolio report? I think it works pretty well in 2.6.19. Depending on what you want it might do the trick.
