I dont have much to add to this conversation but it surprises me that Rust hasn't come up in the comments. Would/could rust be appropriate for these kinds of use cases today/in the future?

In theory, yes. In practice, we need to get SIMD working on stable, which is underway but not done yet. We also need to get RFC 2000, const integers, implemented. And I'm sure other things too. Basically, Rust could be excellent at this in the future, but right now, is merely okay.
