OctaSine v0.7.0 released (free and open source FM synth VST plugin for macOS/Windows/Linux) with major improvements
For instance, I ended up contributing a large part of the macOS implementation of https://github.com/RustAudio/baseview for plugin window handling, since nothing filling the need existed (baseview works pretty well now, though.)

Official /r/rust "Who's Hiring" thread for job-seekers and job-offerers [Rust 1.55]
I have been working in Rust for about 4 years, mainly as the developer of aquatic and OctaSine and as a contributor to baseview. I have prior experience in web development using technologies such as actix-web, TypeScript, React, Django and PostgreSQL.

OctaSine, a FM-based VST2 synthesizer written in Rust
I eventually decided that I wanted a GUI. The Rust GUI situation is not very mature and special considerations required for vst plugin windows complicate the situation further. I discovered baseview at some point. With the mentoring of wrl and others, I was able to contribute code to get it working on macOS.

xcb-sys: raw bindings to XCB, generated with rust-bindgen
For context, I am working on/contributing to a cross-platform windowing library, and the situation is the same with the Windows and macOS platform APIs. I don't really need or want a safe abstraction over any of these, because what I am working on is the safe abstraction.

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (22/2023)!
I have a question on UnsafeCell usage that popped up while implementing io_uring support for aquatic_udp. I find the docs slightly confusing (in particular the part that I've marked in bold):
-
aquatic_udp (UDP BitTorrent tracker) performance improvements: up to 2.25 million responses per second
I've done a new round of benchmarking of open UDP BitTorrent tracker implementations. Results were great for aquatic_udp, achieving double the throughput of opentracker when running on 8 CPU cores:
-
WebTorrent
If you run your tracker on Linux and an info hash whitelist approach would work for your use case, it might be worthwhile having a look at aquatic_ws [0]. It relies on tungstenite [1] for websockets and achieves around 20x the throughput of the reference implementation when running with four threads.

aquatic_ws (WebTorrent tracker) rewritten with glommio, achieves up to 1.6 million responses a second in load tests
But aquatic_udp doesn't use glommio.. https://github.com/greatest-ape/aquatic/pull/29

aquatic: extremely performant open BitTorrent tracker software (UDP, HTTP, WebTorrent)
aquatic is a Apache 2.0-licensed BitTorrent tracker written in Rust that I have developed over the last couple of years. It focuses on correctness, stability and high performance.
