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.

FoundationDB: A Distributed Key-Value Store
I’ve been using FDB for toy projects for a while. It’s truly rock solid. That being said, I wish there were more layers.
Ideally someone could implement the firestore or dynamodb api on top.

SQLite-based databases on the Postgres protocol? Yes we can
- Oh, and if you're wondering about backup to S3, they have that too: https://github.com/libsql/bottomless
- Uh, sqld can integrated with this https://github.com/losfair/mvsqlite, so now your SQLite is backed by FoundationDB!?
- Meanwhile Litestream exists https://github.com/benbjohnson/litestream/

Litestream doesn't do SQLite replication anymore (LiteFS does)
Shameless plug of my [mvSQLite](https://github.com/losfair/mvsqlite) project here! It's basically another distributed SQLite, but with support for everything expected from a proper distributed database: synchronous replication, strictly serializable transactions, + scalable reads and writes w/ multiple concurrent writers.

SQLite: QEMU All over Again?
This project looks really exciting!
I'm working on mvsqlite [1], a distributed SQLite based on FoundationDB. When doing the VFS integration I have always wanted to patch SQLite itself, but didn't because of uncertainty around correctness of the patched version...
A few features on my wishlist:
1. Asynchronous I/O. mvsqlite is currently doing its own prefetch prediction that is not very accurate. I assume higher layers in SQLite have more information that can help with better prediction.
2. Custom page allocator. SQLite internally uses a linked list to manage database pages - this causes contention on any two transactions that both allocate or free pages.
3. Random ROWID, without the `max(int64)` row trick. Sequentially increasing ROWIDs is a primary source of contention, and causes significant INSERT slowdown in my benchmark [2].

Show HN: Query SQLite files stored in S3
That DynamoDB VFS looks cool! I agree that the VFS api makes one think about plenty of crazy ideas. Someone is working on a VFS based on Foundation DB[0] that looks very promising. It was recently discussed here[1]

Why do lifetimes need to be leaky?
No, you don't. Existential proof: mrustc ignores lifetimes. Just flat out simply ignores. It changes some corner-cases related to HRBT, yet rustc compiled by mrustc works (that's BTW mrustc exist: to bootsrap the rustc compiler).
-
I think C++ is still a desirable coding platform compared to Rust
Incidentally C++ is the only way to bootstrap rust without rust today.

Rust – Faster compilation with the parallel front-end in nightly
Well, there is mrustc[0], a Rust compiler that doesn't include a borrow-checker, so it's possible to compile (at least some versions of) Rust without a borrow checker, though it might not result in the most optimized code.
AFAIK there are some optimization like the infamous `noalias` optimization (which took several tries to get turned on[1]) that uses information established during borrow checking.
I'm also not sure what the relation with NLL (non-lexical lifetimes) is, where I would assume you would need at least a primitive borrow-checker to establish some information that the backend might be interested in. Then again, mrustc compiles Rust versions that have NLL features without a borrow-checker, so it's again probably more on the optimization side than being essential.

Forty years of GNU and the free software movement
> Maybe another memory safe language, but Rust has severe bootstrapping issues which is a hard sell for distros that care about source to binary transparency.
It is possible to bootstrap rustc from just GCC relatively easily, although it's a little bit time consuming.
You can use mrustc to bootstrap Rust 1.54: https://github.com/thepowersgang/mrustc
And from then you can go through each version all the way to the current 1.72. (Each new Rust version officially needs the previous one to compile.)

Stop Comparing Rust to Old C++
There are three. The official one, mrustc (no borrow checker, but can essentially compile the official rustc) and GCC (can't really compile anything substantial yet). Only rustc is production-ready though.

Can I make it so that only the newest version of Rust gets installed?
That probably depends on what you mean by problematic. Having an ever increasing chain of dependencies isn’t the most desirable situation so there has been some work to trim the bootstrap chain. In 2018, when the blogpost I linked above was written, mrustc was used to bootstrap rust 1.19.0; now mrustc can bootstrap rust 1.54.0 so the chain to recent versions is much shorter than if all those intervening versions back through 1.19.0 needed to be built. https://github.com/thepowersgang/mrustc
