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.

We’re the Meilisearch team! To celebrate v1.0 of our open-source search engine, Ask us Anything!
There are issues and pull requests but I advise you to look at the milli folder in the Meilisearch repository, it’s where all the logic is done. We extensively use RoaringBitmaps, heed the LMDB wrapper and grenad when indexing.
- Roaring-rs, better-compressed bitsets, is introducing faster multiple-bitmaps operations

Roaring-rs, better-compressed bitsets, is seeing the most important performance speed-up to date
On some benchmarks, we are faster but most of the time we aren't. We absolutely need to introduce benchmarks with the croaring-rs library and most of those performances gain could also be achieved with other methods to do multi-ops for example.

What’s everyone working on this week (9/2022)?
We tried to release the new version of roaring-rs, better compressed bitset in Rust, but found out that the core library simd module was blocking us. We now have to work on std::simd to release the blocking features.

Meilisearch, the Rust search engine, just raised $5M
Yeah, it can be attributed to using the roaring-rs library, but not just that, we have done so much to improve the search performances by reducing the number of set-operations we do.

Improving GitHub Code Search
Given the shoutouts to Burntsushi and Lemire this is almost certainly a bitmap trigram index based engine similar to https://github.com/google/zoekt
The index is likely based on Roaring bitmaps, presumably https://github.com/RoaringBitmap/roaring-rs in this case.
Nice architecture, exactly how I would have done it also.
- roaring-rs - What do you think about deprecating the set operation functions (intersect_with...) for the benefit of the std ops traits?
-
What's everyone working on this week (17/2021)?
I have worked on roaring-rs, a very fast library to do set operations like unions and intersections, and improved the four operations by using the standard ops traits.
-
What’s everyone working on this week (13/2021)?
I have implemented a better way of specifying ranges to be inserted or removed from a RoaringBitmap by using the RangeBounds trait. The roaring-rs library exposes fast data-structures to do set operations, like intersections and unions.

Feedback and proposals for generic-array 1.0
Link to draft PR for 1.0 if you'd like to suggest changes, or suggest them here. PRs to the 1.0 branch are welcome as well.
-
What's everyone working on this week (13/2023)?
Working on a 1.0 release draft for generic-array and possibly starting on a procedural macro for an SQL DSL to replace this 900-rule abomination that chokes rust-analyzer so bad I repasted my CPU because it was pushing it so hard I became concerned.

mtrx: Type Safe Matrix Operations using Const Generics
While it's only recently that Rust has gotten first-class support for type-level values (i.e., const generics), encoding numbers in the type system has been possible for years — and used to great effect! Typenum's first release was September 25th, 2015, and generic-array was first released on September 27th, 2015; nalgebra started using these crates with its v0.6.0 release on March 31, 2016.
What are some alternatives?
When comparing roaring-rs and generic-array you can also consider the following projects:
array_tool - Array helpers for Rust's Vector and String types
croaring-rs - Rust FFI wrapper for CRoaring
base_custom - Rust implementation of custom numeric base conversion.
nym - Manipulate files en masse using patterns.
crossbeam - Tools for concurrent programming in Rust
milli - Search engine library for Meilisearch ⚡️
NumToA - An efficient method of heaplessly converting numbers into their string representations, storing the representation within a reusable byte array.

nym - Nym provides strong network-level privacy against sophisticated end-to-end attackers, and anonymous transactions using blinded, re-randomizable, decentralized credentials.
mtrx - Provides type-safe matrix operations using Rust's const generics
