Hello! It's been a bit since I dug into hyper, but that's surprisingly low. Just to check, did you compile this with optimizations enabled, like `cargo build --release`?

This is great news! Congrats on the launch. How is the performance compared to the other Level 3/4 load balancers, like HAProxy, NginX, AWS ELB, and GCE's Cloud Load Balancer? disclosure: rust core team member

I wrote it [0]. I meant to get it merged upstream, but the author took the repository offline to help build his business, so my fork bitrotted. However, it looks like Rust support may have independently landed upstream [2]? [0]: https:&#x2

One approach for this that I haven't really seen get used much that you can use a macro to get around this. In your comboluator.rs, just add this at the bottom of the file: #[cfg(test)] Mod tests { include!("comb

Rust Core team member here. Out of the box, the Rust standard library only provides very basic networking support [1]. If you want to process requests in parallel, then yes you need to spawn an OS thread to process the request. We went with

For those not watching the compiler development traffic, macros 1.1 (which will enable things like #[derive(FromForm))]) could land in stable as soon as 6 weeks from now. We haven't really started thinking about a "macros 1.2&quot

Thanks for the heads up! We fixed that setting, so mail away.

That's a wonderful idea! I filed [1] to track it. I meant to do something like this, but it got lost in the shuffle prepping for the announcement. We'll publish one in a future blog post. [1]: https://github.com/ru

There's no real difference with what serde_codegen does, and what the compiler does for expanding macros. It's just expanding to source rather than raw AST. The idea would be that these types would be put into a library (or just a

Serde code generation can be used on stable Rust, it just requires a bit of boilerplate code to setup: https://serde.rs/codegen-stable.html . Things will be much better once macros 1.1 gets stabilized.

Serde creator here. Steve's right, serde is fundamentally a generic protocol that implements serialization. I didn't use nom for serde_json (because it didn't exist at the time) but it's definitely possible to use nom an

Rust uses the train release model which releases every 6 weeks [1]. It's definitely possible for someone to have an open PR for a year that's not in this list. I'm pretty sure this list is generated by running `git log --form

In the Rust case, the crashes are either the stack being blown on recursion or panics when overflowing numbers.

Rust Core Team member here. I actually wrote up an RFC [1] that proposes adding JavaScript-like source map support to Rust, in order to improve our plugins-in-stable-code supports. Odds are we are going to reject it for now since I think we

Thanks for finding that bug! In a way, Serde itself is all about extracting the metadata of a type and handling validation issues. However this is metadata is currently not exposed to end users. It's something I've thought about d

The drop flag is only generated for types that implement the `Drop` trait. Furthermore, there's work [0] that will shift the drop flag out of the value onto the call stack frame, and then even only in situations where the compiler cann
