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.

I'm releasing cargo-sandbox
The Linux kernel has a huge attack surface, and privilege escalation vulnerabilities abound. This is why https://gvisor.dev/ exists - it's a memory-safe proxy for Linux syscalls. This is also why Chrome OS runs its Linux environment in a custom hypervisor written in Rust instead of containers.

Make your QEMU 10 times faster with this one weird trick
Same protocol, but the implementation is at the discretion of whoever writes the server code.
For example I went to check and in crosvm we use a BTreeMap already for Fids for our p9 implementation (thankfully): https://github.com/google/crosvm/blob/main/common/p9/src/ser...

Firecracker: Lightweight Virtualization for Serverless Applications (2020)
I'm not sure, but maybe because it started as a fork of crosvm[0]?

Is the source code for the Terminal app published online somewhere?
However i think what you're looking for is rather backend stuff, maybe take a look at here.

Bubblewrap: Unprivileged Sandboxing Tool for Linux
I've also been looking into shipping apps as VM images with a minimal kernel. Do you know if WHPX requires the user to have admin rights? On the host side, Windows and Mac ports of crosvm [1] could be useful. crosvm seems to have all the necessary virtio device types, but a greater focus on security than QEMU.
