fast_io + refterm v2 is 46548 times faster than stdio.h + cmd
Ah, fair enough! Happen to have a link to an example / docs? I can't really make heads or tails of the examples/docs and I don't really spend much time worrying about optimizing I/O in C++ to have enough context. I assume something to do with open_mode?

C++ left arrow operator (2016)
Continuation passing monads form the basis of a perfectly valid and usable software architecture and programming pattern.
In the case of ostream and operator<<, this pattern reduces the number of intermediate objects that would otherwise be constructed.
If you object to iostream on religious or stylistic grounds, there's always fmt which is more like Go or Python string interpolation.[0]

Optimizing the unoptimizable: a journey to faster C++ compile times
Good catch, thanks! Fixed now. This explains why the difference was kinda low compared to another benchmark: https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt?tab=readme-ov-file#compile-tim....

Learn Modern C++
> This is from C++23, right?
std::println is, yes.
> I wonder how available this is within compilers
https://en.cppreference.com/w/cpp/compiler_support says clang, gcc, and msvc all support it, though I don't know how recent those versions are off the top of my head.
In my understanding, with this specific feature, if you want a polyfill for older compilers, or to use some more cutting-edge features that haven't been standardized yet, https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt is available to you.

For processing strings, streams in C++ can be slow
{fmt} has internal buffering but it's not yet exposed to users. There is a feature request for it: https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt/issues/2354. FILE buffering is not too bad but it can be easily optimized: https://www.zverovich.net/2020/08/04/optimal-file-buffer-siz....

adoption of fmt based logging
Automatic use of operator<< when that exists was present in fmt until version 9.0.0. In version 9 you could use FMT_DEPRECATED_OSTREAM to opt in the old behaviour, but this too was removed in version 10.0.0. Now there is no way to automatically use operator<<.

Codebases to read
Additionally, if you like low level stuff, check out libfmt (https://github.com/fmtlib/fmt) - not a big project, not difficult to understand. Or something like simdjson (https://github.com/simdjson/simdjson).
