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.

Show /r/rust: Viewstamped Replication for Rust
My perspective is that VSR seems much more easier to grasp than Raft based on reading and contributing to Ilya Andreev's Little Raft. The selection of primary replica ("leader election" in Raft), for example, is dead-simple in VSR (you maintain a deterministic order of nodes and round-robin). Also, VSR seems to do a better job at decoupling the different scenarios at protocol level (backup fell behind, crashed, etc.) whereas in Raft the AppendEntries is a big hammer that does everything. I have very little experience on Paxos so can't really compare it to VSR.
