That's the mindset that leads to the funny result that `uv pip` is like 10x faster than `pip`. Is it because Rust is just fast? Nope. For anything after resolv

That's the mindset that leads to the funny result that `uv pip` is like 10x faster than `pip`. Is it because Rust is just fast? Nope. For anything after resolving dependency versions raw CPU performance doesn't matter at all. It's writing concurrent PLUS parallel code in Rust is easier, doesn't need to spawn a few processes and wait for the interpreter to start in each, doesn't need to serialize whatever shit you want to run constantly. So, someone did it! Yet, there's a pip maintainer who actively sabotages free-threading work. Nice.
