Rust, the language, has rather successfully worked towards and demonstrated that, in many areas, you CAN have your pie and eat it too. But that doesn't carry over to applications, where it must be demonstrated again.
- hsbauauvhabzb 3y agoI’m doubtful the fact that uv is written in rust is directly responsible for the speed increase, it’s probably just a better dependency determination algorthm. Stop talking about fancy pies, you don’t need it even if it smells nice. What you actually need is to eat healthy and nutritious foods.
- kbenson 3y agoFeels like a mixed message, because my natural inclination would be to think of Rust as healthy and nutritious foods (it takes dedication and consistency to stick with it) and a better dependency algorithm as a fancy pie, since it's a on-off nice gain that feels good, but doesn't necessarily lead to additional benefits later.
- fnordpiglet 3y agoHaving done a fair amount of rust porting I imagine it’s a mix a both. Rust really is remarkably faster than Python at everything. But these results are indicative of a better algorithm as well.
