Oh, first time I heard about Cloudflare Workers. Must have been living under a rock. This looks very interesting in many regards.
I'm in the camp "use Rust if you need it". Supporting Rust natively here makes a lot of sense for compute heavy applicatons. There's still some 30 ms latency, so some single digit microseconds don't really matter, but getting in the region of saving 2 digit microseconds in compute, the performance benefits of Rust start paying off (of course depending on the number of requests). So, I guess this is a great examples for choosing Rust.
The combo Cloudflare Workers and Rust is probably the fastest you can get for worldwide delivery of dynamic content. Really interesting stuff.
