Maybe the title should be changed to something like "Optimizing 70% CPUs away with Rust" ? As it is now, it is quite clickbait-y as you don't have any idea of whether it is 700 out of 701 or 700 out of 70000.

Giving a delta without a reference doesn't let the reader calculate if they stand to save 1% or 99%. Because the reader has to click to be able to make the assessment, it's bait.t Title can be "Optimizing 700 CPUs of x away ..."
