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.

bitter v0.6 - the performant bit reading library with a new faster API
There's quite a bit of unsafe (ick) and there's even an unsafe API that allow one to shoot themselves in the foot (more ick). I'm cautiously optimistic that the performance demonstrated by miniz_oxide (a project with lots of bit reading and zero unsafe) could mean a reduction of unsafe in bitter without sacrificing performance.

Good example of high performance Rust project without unsafe code?
miniz_oxide is slightly faster than zlib

Good example of high performance Rust project without unsafe code?
Good point, I don't know the answer to this. What I ended up doing was creating my own "safe" wrappers for the AVX2 instructions (which is basically what you want to use for x86). There are other crates that provides safe interfaces, but they didn't really fit my needs.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing miniz_oxide and simple-simd you can also consider the following projects:
libdeflate - Heavily optimized library for DEFLATE/zlib/gzip compression and decompression
gearley - An Earley parser engine in Rust.
cv - Rust CV mono-repo. Contains pure-Rust dependencies which attempt to encapsulate the capability of OpenCV, OpenMVG, and vSLAM frameworks in a cohesive set of APIs.
ttf-parser - A high-level, safe, zero-allocation TrueType font parser.
json-benchmark - nativejson-benchmark in Rust
yaep - Yet Another Earley Parser
FFmpeg - Mirror of https://git.ffmpeg.org/ffmpeg.git
bitter - Extract bits from a byte slice
Symphonia - Pure Rust multimedia format demuxing, tag reading, and audio decoding library
