The number of mentions indicates the total number of mentions that we've tracked plus the number of user suggested alternatives.
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.

Monoio – A thread-per-core Rust async runtime with io_uring
> Have any other Rust async runtimes use io_uring/gotten at all good yet?
yes, check out `actix-rt`

Weird architectures weren't supported to begin with
> For example, this method violates memory safety by handing out multiple mutable references to the same data, which can lead to e.g. a use-after-free vulnerability. I have reported the issue to the maintainers, but they have refused to investigate it. _(issue now deleted)_

Having trouble using async libraries
It has been tokio and v1 support is in progress on master branch: https://github.com/actix/actix-net/blob/master/actix-rt/Cargo.toml

Do you ever use unsafe { .. } when not implementing custom data structures or interacting with external C code?
The most "virtuous"/desirable statement in this topic is probably the "100% safe code now - while being faster than the C version!" on the rust-secure-code/safety-dance entry for miniz_oxide.
-
Good example of high performance Rust project without unsafe code?
According to the rust-secure-code/safety-dance trophy case, their audit left miniz_oxide 100% safe and faster than the C version.

Rust Vs. Go Random Observations
Efforts that don't try to pick winners, but just to help packages that already exist, like Rust Safety Dance and developing tools like Miri. (And that dependency-improving sprint, the name of which eludes me, but which was mentioned in TWIR a while ago.)

Fast and robust e-mail parsing library for Rust
I'm similarly iffy on using a parser for something as web-exposed as e-mail which uses unsafe for a performance boost without a thumbs-up from someone like /u/Shnatsel and the Safety Dance.
-
Weird architectures weren't supported to begin with
Since this all happened, the safety-dance project has come into existence, which aims to channel the mob into doing useful things, not just piling onto someone who's got different views on what they want from Rust.

Is there anyone looking for GSOC student for a Rust project ? (or just a contributor for a project ?)
https://github.com/rust-secure-code/safety-dance is always looking for contributors.
