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.

How to run an Nginx container with socket activation and rootless Podman? (I only got it working with a simplified Nginx container image)
Socket activation should be the fastest alternative as then there is no need to process and interpret the network traffic that is sent over the socket. Both slirp4netns and netavark process the traffic. If I understand correctly the network driver bypass4netns could have similar performance as socket activation. The current bypass4netns implementation has some security problems but it seems that could be fixed.

Podman 4.2.0
(That could a be cool feature)
Also interesting would be to fix the security considerations of using bypass4netns:
"However, it is probably possible to connect to host loopback IPs by exploiting TOCTOU of struct sockaddr * pointers."
There seems to be an implementation idea for how the problem could be fixed:

Minikube now supports rootless podman driver for running Kubernetes
The filesystem performance degradation was resolved in kernel 5.11 which added support for rootless overlayfs.
The network performance is caused by slirp (usermode TCP/IP) but it is being resolved too : https://github.com/rootless-containers/bypass4netns

Gokrazy – Go Appliances
Interesting, and thanks.
I didn't know about those. I kind of thought you may have used MirageOS, which I had read about earlier. It is done in OCaml.

Unix system programming in OCaml (2014)

"MirageOS is a library operating system that constructs unikernels for secure, high-performance network applications across a variety of cloud computing and mobile platforms."

PostgreSQL reconsiders its process-based model
That was/is part of the promise of the whole unikernel thing, no?
https://mirage.io/ or similar could then let you boot your database. That said, it's not really taken off from what I can tell, so I'm guessing there's more to it than that.

MirageOS is not Rust, but in the ballpark!

Is there an operating systems that is a runtime of a programming language?
MirageOS is a runtime for OCaml to create unikernels. They describe themselves as "library operating system". Probably not quite what you were asking for, but I think it's quite interesting for certain use cases (e.g. running services as standalone unikernels in VMs or embedded devices instead of "traditional" programs on top of a general purpose OS).
