Hyperfine: A command-line benchmarking tool
Perhaps interesting (for some) to note that hyperfine is from the same author as at least a few other "ne{w,xt} generation" command line tools (that could maybe be seen as part of "rewrite it in Rust", but I don't want to paint the author with a brush they disagree with!!): fd (find alternative; https://github.com/sharkdp/fd), bat ("supercharged version of the cat command"; https://github.com/sharkdp/bat), and hexyl (hex viewer; https://github.com/sharkdp/hexyl). (And certainly others I've missed!)
Pointing this out because I myself appreciate comments that do this.
For myself, `fd` is the one most incorporated into my own "toolbox" -- used it this morning prior to seeing this thread on hyperfine! So, thanks for all that, sharkdp if you're reading!
Ok, end OT-ness.

wxHexEditor — a Free Hex Editor / Disk Editor for Huge Files or Devices
I noticed hexyl wasn't on your list: https://github.com/sharkdp/hexyl
Your software seems to be in the same vein as hexyl. I can't personally vouch for how well it handles large files cause it's been a while, but I suspect it'll do alright.

Blazingly fast file search library built in Rust 🔥
The API looks really nice! What is your vision for the project? How is it going to compare to (walkdir)[https://github.com/BurntSushi/walkdir] performance and feature-wise?

Git ls-files is Faster Than Fd and Find
> I believe that GNU find is slow because it is specifically written to allow arbitrary filesystem depth as opposed to "open file descriptor limit-limited depth".
I haven't benchmarked find specifically, but I believe the most common Rust library for the purpose, walkdir[1], also allows arbitrary file system recursion depth, and is extremely fast. It was fairly close to some "naive" limited depth code I wrote in C for the same purpose.
I'd be curious to see benchmarks of whether this actually makes a difference.

Your favorite Rust CLI utility? I have my top 10 below.
It relies pretty heavily on the walkdir library from burntsushi so kudos to them!

Rust, musl and glibc in 2021
Although, I don't think FileType is the only problem. There's also Metadata, which I also had to re-roll: https://github.com/BurntSushi/walkdir/blob/1d7293a5a1ef548ce587a0b08abce5f21571a100/src/os/unix/stat.rs
