  > I don't think rg speed can be attributed to Rust. I didn't say it was, and this isn't even remotely close to my point. The comment I was replying to wasn't even talking about Rust versus C. Just new tools versus old tools. > ripgrep gains comes from a ton of brilliant optimizations and strategies done by it's author. They wrote articles about such tricks. I know. I'm its author!

    oh hi burntsushi! Good thing I applauded your skills to... yourself, without realizing. haha I was replying to this: > Is performance a frequent rationale for rewriting C applications in Rust? But I now realize your message was much more specific so I stand corrected with regards to context. Your point was indeed different.
