Yes. At least that was my experience coming to Rust from a primarily JavaScript background. My first Rust program wasn't as fast as it could have been (I know a lot more about optimising programs now than I did then), but it was still ~30x faster than the JavaScript and Pythons versions my company had attempted to write first. That's without putting all that much effort into optimising it.
