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.

Rust std:fs slower than Python
> I wish Rust would switch to mimalloc or the latest tcmalloc (not the one in gperftools).
That's nonsensical. Rust uses the system allocators for compatibility, not because they're good (they were not when Rust switched away from jemalloc, and they aren't now).
If you want to use mimalloc in your rust programs, you can just set it as global allocator, that takes all of three lines: https://github.com/purpleprotocol/mimalloc_rust#usage

Hey Rustaceans! Got a question? Ask here (15/2023)!
Context: When using mimalloc as global allocator, linking with crt-static fails with the following error:

Tips on scaling a monolithic Rust web server?
Use an optimized memory allocator, my choice is mimalloc. It wins every time I compare it, even against jemalloc (not to mention it supports arena hardening which is good for security).

Rust Mimalloc v0.1.30 has just been released!
Version 0.1.19 of the Rust wrapper for the mimalloc memory allocator has just been released!

Maintenance status (jemallocator)
I'll mention that mimalloc (+ Rust wrapper) is great alternative to jemalloc.

If found this set of crates for other algorithms : https://github.com/RustCrypto/hashes And also found this set of crates that seem to include a lot of block cyphers : https://github.com/RustCrypto/block-ciphers Even if "des" is listed as a crate in this last link, it doesn't seem to provide the DES algorithm entirely.

Cargo complains over yanked dependency
If you are trying to use it as a library in your own crate then I would suggest looking at the [patch.crates-io] section of your Cargo.toml. It should allow you to override the dependency and point it to something else. Under that section set aes = { git = 'https://github.com/RustCrypto/block-ciphers', rev = 'e59142b26edcaa5e287c7e5067be8a501b42f9cb' }, changing the rev key to whichever commit has the right version of the crate when it was published. Then do the same for block-cipher and any others that it cannot find the version for but with the correct repository and commit.

Crate for AES256 - which one to choose? Questions about block cipher modes and AEAD too.
aes (GitHub: RustCrypto / block-ciphers / aes) good: still maintained as of now - last commit on GitHub is from October 2021 good: examples look easy to use good: has received an audit by NCC Group bad: seems a bit too low level - the example provided only shows usage with data that is exactly block sized - seems there is no padding handling for real world use cases

Encrypting Data Between Raspberry Pi 4s Using PyCryptodome
I have no idea which libraries have the best code for Raspberry Pi 4. I think it doesn't have hardware AES, so an implementation of AES that doesn't leak secret bits through side channels and is fast would be complicated. The code I would trust is this: https://github.com/RustCrypto/block-ciphers but I have no idea whether it has python bindings. I would also sorry about correctly reusing buffers or else the memory allocation would be the bottleneck.

How to encrypt text file with Rust?
You should look at this this: https://github.com/rust-cc/awesome-cryptography-rust and you probably need this: https://github.com/RustCrypto/block-ciphers

Pure Functional cipher
For example, here is a bitsliced AES S-box written in single assignment form. Granted that's not the entire cipher, but the entire cipher can be implemented that way if you so desire.
