Thanks! You can see the client here: https://github.com/ddnet/ddnet SDL2, OpenGL, FreeType, pnglite, zlib, curl, md5, wavpack, opus, json-parser So pretty much low level, keeps the performance and flexibility high.

Thanks! Interesting to hear about your experience as well. By requests per seconds you mean packets? I was curious and with 330 players playing on DDNet right now[1] we get ~7400 packets/s incoming, ~8300 packets/s outgoing. [1]

Actually quite some work went into making Nim integrate better with C++ code, C++ templates especially I guess.

You can do it a bit shorter and easier in Nim as well: import macros, strutils macro abcProcs(n: varargs[expr]): stmt = result = newStmtList() for c in n.children: result.add parseStmt("proc $1 = echo

You can use the noSideEffect pragma for that already.

In my opinion Rust and Nim would make a nice team as complementary languages: Use Rust for everything that needs high safety and high performance at the same time, Nim for everything else. https://andreaferretti.github.io/on

The first compilation, which is 160 KB, is totally unoptimized, contains all kinds of debugging and checks. It's just supposed to be for yourself during development of the program. Also there is some overhead every Nim program has. But

You're right that most Nim users don't do it, but you should be able to use Nim for embedded environments as a replacement for C.: - http://nim-lang.org/nimc.html#nim-for-embedded-systems - https://gith
