Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

The One Billion Row Challenge in CUDA: from 17 minutes to 17 seconds
This would be the code to beat. Ideally with only 8 cores but any number of cores is also very interesting.

One Billion Row Challenge in Golang - From 95s to 1.96s
Given that 1-billion-line-file is approximately 13GB, instead of providing a fixed database, the official repository offers a script to generate synthetic data with random readings. Just follow the instructions to create your own database.

1BRC Merykitty's Magic SWAR: 8 Lines of Code Explained in 3k Words
Local disk I/O is no longer the bottleneck on modern systems: https://benhoyt.com/writings/io-is-no-longer-the-bottleneck/
In addition, the official 1BRC explicitly evaluated results on a RAM disk to avoid I/O speed entirely: https://github.com/gunnarmorling/1brc?tab=readme-ov-file#eva... "Programs are run from a RAM disk (i.o. the IO overhead for loading the file from disk is not relevant)"

From slow to SIMD: A Go optimization story
Even manual vectorization is pain...writing ASM, really?
Rust has unstable portable SIMD and a few third-party crates, C++ has that as well, C# has stable portable SIMD and a very small BLAS-like library on top of it (hell it even exercises PackedSIMD when ran in a browser) and Java is getting stable Panama vectors some time in the future (though the question of codegen quality stands open given planned changes to unsafe API).
Go among these is uniquely disadvantaged. And if that's not enough, you may want to visit 1Brc's challenge discussions and see that Go struggles get anywhere close to 2s mark with both C# and C++ are blazing past it:

JEP Draft: Deprecate Memory-Access Methods in Sun.misc.Unsafe for Removal
In terms of performance: I realize that this is a somewhat "toy" issue, and it's a sample size of 1, but for the currently ongoing "One Billion Row Challenge"[1] (an ongoing Java performance competition related to parsing and aggregating a 13 GB file), all of the current top-performers are using Unsafe. More specifically, the use of Unsafe appears to have been the change for a few entries that allowed getting below the 3-second barrier in the test.

Show HN: Query Your Sheets with SheetSQL
Readers may also enjoy Steampipe [1], an open source CLI to live query Google Sheets [2] and 140+ other services with SQL (e.g. AWS, GitHub, etc). It uses Postgres Foreign Data Wrappers under the hood and supports joins etc across the services. (Disclaimer - I'm a lead on the project.)

Osquery: An sqlite3 virtual table exposing operating system data to SQL
be mindful of its AGPLv3 https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/blob/v0.21.8/LICENSE (AFAIK v0.4.3 is the last MIT release https://github.com/turbot/steampipe/blob/v0.4.3/LICENSE ) and the actual providers are Apache 2 <https://github.com/turbot/steampipe-plugin-aws/blob/v0.131.0...> (but I don't know if provider drift makes them compatible with 0.4 or not)
iasql seems to be AWS only, but good for them for taking this on:

How to run an AWS CIS v3.0 assessment in CloudShell
In a prior post I showed how to install Steampipe in AWS CloudShell to instantly query over 460+ resource types from your AWS APIs using SQL, and another post on how to use the Steampipe AWS Compliance mod to assess over 25+ security benchmarks across your AWS accounts.

Cutting down AWS cost by $150k per year simply by shutting things off
Readers may find Steampipe's [1] AWS Thrifty Mod [2] useful. It will automatically scan multiple accounts and regions for 50 cost saving opportunities - many of which are looking for over-provisioned or unused resources. For example, it's crazy how much you can save by doing things like just converting your EBS volumes to the newer gp3 type. Combine with Flowpipe [3] to automate checks and actions. It's all open source and extensible.

Zero-ETL for Postgres: Live-query cloud APIs with 100 open source FDWs
Steampipe [1] is an open source project [2] that includes an embedded Postgres to instantly query cloud, code & more with SQL. This release expands our plugin ecosystem [3] to be a full Zero-ETL platform. Steampipe plugins can now run natively in your own Postgres as Foreign Data Wrappers [4], as SQLite extensions [5] or as simple data export tools [6]. Please give it a try, we'd love your feedback and contributions!
