> I don't see why did you label Aliaksandr Valialkin, the author, an "expert". I mean, he's no dummy but what exactly makes him an expert on optimizing Go code? https://victoriametrics.com/team/ https://victoriametrics.com/team/ - Let's see. Author of multiple performance-optimized libraries with a masters degree in computer software engineering and a background in highly scalable systems (as needed for adtech). Sounds pretty much like an expert for optimizing code to me. > And I've seen this trick before so it's not some secret, expert-only knowledge. So, if you know it it's not export knowledge or what's your argument here?
