  • tokio

    A runtime for writing reliable asynchronous applications with Rust. Provides I/O, networking, scheduling, timers, ...

  • Project mention: On Implementation of Distributed Protocols | dev.to | 2024-04-05

    Being able to control nondeterminism is particularly useful for testing and debugging. This allows creating reproducible test environments, as well as discrete-event simulation for faster-than-real-time simulation of time delays. For example, Cardano uses a simulation environment for the IO monad that closely follows core Haskell packages; Sui has a simulator based on madsim that provides an API-compatible replacement for the Tokio runtime and intercepts various POSIX API calls in order to enforce determinism. Both allow running the same code in production as in the simulator for testing.

  • fasthttp

  • Project mention: Rob Pike: Gobs of data (2011) | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-12-04

    Someone made a benchmark of serialization libraries in go [1], and I was surprised to see gobs is one of the slowest ones, specially for decoding. I suspect part of the reason is that the API doesn't not allow reusing decoders [2]. From my explorations it seems like both JSON [3], message-pack [4] and CBOR [5] are better alternatives.

    By the way, in Go there are a like a million JSON encoders because a lot of things in the std library are not really coded for maximum performance but more for easy of usage, it seems. Perhaps this is the right balance for certain things (ex: the http library, see [6]).

    There are also a bunch of libraries that allow you to modify a JSON file "in place", without having to fully deserialize into structs (ex: GJSON/SJSON [7] [8]). This sounds very convenient and more efficient that fully de/serializing if we just need to change the data a little.

    They would have had to add a few externals to get to Graduated but it's definitely a minority:

    Sniffnet is an open source, Rust-based network monitoring tool I’ve been working on for almost two years now.

  • cpp-httplib

    A C++ header-only HTTP/HTTPS server and client library

  • Project mention: Experience using crow as web server | /r/cpp | 2023-11-06

    Alternatives at the low to medium level of abstraction include civetweb and mongoose, which have a common ancestor. Both of these appear to be C rather than C++, but seem to be production quality and well-documented. Another C library is cpp-httplib, which is probably too low-level for me.

  • Mongoose

    Embedded Web Server (by cesanta)

  • Project mention: Coroutines in C | news.ycombinator.com | 2024-02-25

    I've found myself at this webpage multiple times while trying to minimize the complexity of APIs in my C projects.

    My conclusion for now is that C coroutines are something to be left to the implementer. For example: Mongoose (https://github.com/cesanta/mongoose) uses event callbacks to deal with asynchronousness. It is much more pleasant to wrap a library like this in whatever thread/task primitives your system has rather than try to integrate the mythical cross-platform c couroutine.
