> the platform allocators are utterly terrible the allocation overhead is orders of magnitude higher than in even a relatively basic runtime, thus the program is dog slow
Huh. I’ve seen lots of people write slow Rust code because they didn’t realize there were allocations. But the complaint is usually “my rust program is only 5x faster than my equivalent python program instead of 100x how come”?
Can you point out some good blog posts about Rust or C++ being slower than a “basic runtime” due to inferior allocator?
