Hyper may very well be much faster, but it isn't. Which is the whole issue with the Rust vs Go debates: one is possibly much better, but the other one gets all the code written for it in 1/6th of the time (Rust came out the same time Go did, to great fanfare).

Are we willing to wait 6x longer for rust to catch up? Some people are, most people aren't.




I don't know whether you're talking about a 6x development speed differential or a 6x performance difference between Rust and Go HTTP stacks or what, but I am pretty sure that by making up numbers like that you're language warring for no reason.


yes, in this case i am language warring for no reason. i'm an unapologetic go devotee but i like rust just the same. i wish people would just get on with things and write software, rather than comment on minutiae on message boards.
