I had a very similar experience. Much smaller scale, but the service was keeping internal state and clients were connecting with a WebSocket. It could handle up to a million clients on one server and it practically never crashed. While I was writing it I had only hobby-level experience with Rust and I was also mentoring a colleague, so he wrote a big chunk of code as a total Rust noob.
- victor106 4y agoIs this using Async Rust?
- brink 4y agoYes, if you want to handle that many clients, you'll need to use async. It's not too bad to learn.
- Aperocky 4y agoCurses! now I need to learn yet another language!
- WesolyKubeczek 4y agoI have a theory that people who are noobs in a certain technology, but are overall experienced, tend to produce very solid code, because they actively avoid doing clever things.
- 4m1rk 4y agoNice one. I believe we should avoid doing unnecessary clever things deliberately and actively.
