I haven't heard that number before and I'm actually impressed.
For a file-by-file close to literal translation of a memory-unsafe language to Rust, isn't that pretty good?
I was expecting the post-rewrite Bun's unsafe usages to be in the order of magnitude of C2Rust (https://c2rust.com/). I was _not_ expecting it to be in the same ballpark as hand-written Rust.
