    Is there a unix-style streaming tool, like tar/zstd/age, that does forward error correction? I'd love to stick some ECC in that pipeline, data>zstd>age>ecc>tape, cause I'm paranoid about bitrot. I search for such a thing every few months and haven't scratched the itch.

    The closest is things like inFECtious, which is more of just a library.

    Yeah I know, RS is very slow for some reason. I think I'm doing something wrong somewhere, but I'll need to look into it more. The RS library I use, github.com/vivint/infectious, is low-level and spiky in some areas, so I might be doing things inefficiently. I've already noted it and I hope to fix it in 1.15.
