Thanks for the reassurance! Sorry if I sound critical. There will always be a tradeoff between speed and purity---Java vs C# is a actually a pretty interesting case study---and for a language that is as experimental as Rust, I think taking your time to make careful decisions is the right approach. I'm just trying to prepare myself for the wait. :-) Also thanks to you personally for your work making Rust accessible to us newbies. The book is very nice, and a few weeks ago you were really quick to answer a question of mine on IRC. Keep up the good work!
