- steveklabnik 12y agoYeah, it might be neat. It's still unclear how good Rust is going to be at website backends, though there's a lot of people putting hard work into it. Once it all matures, seems good.
- aliakhtar 12y agoI'm considering C++ for an NLP related project. Normally I use Java/Scala, but the memory usage when you have to store a lot of strings, is pretty high. (The Stanford NLP library recommends at least 3-4Gb of Ram) I'm considering C++ for the lower memory requirements, but obviously the syntax, etc aren't ideal. Do you have any opinion on how Rust would perform in that scenario?
- steveklabnik 12y agoI'm not mega familliar with NLP as a field, but abandoning Java means you abandon Weka, right? While Rust the language might be good for this, there's basically zero libraries, so you'll be doing all that work from scratch.
