There’s a nice pure-rust ssh client/server already. Systemd should just be scrapped. This week’s wtf “systemd-tmpfile —-purge” intentionally changed its behavior to “rm -rf /home”. Confirmed not-a-bug. There are dozens of other comparable screwups in that stack, even ignoring the long list of CVEs (including dns and ntp, I think). Rust can’t fix that. I haven’t heard of any issues with jemalloc, though that seems reasonable (assuming calling rust from C doesn’t break compiler inlining, etc).
