  • ipc-bench

    :racehorse: Benchmarks for Inter-Process-Communication Techniques

  • Having now done some benchmarking, I would like to use shared_memory.

  • cargo-geiger

    Detects usage of unsafe Rust in a Rust crate and its dependencies.

  • cargo-geiger is a subcommand you can install which will check all the crates in your dependency graph for unsafe blocks and print out a report (which also shows if a crate has #![forbid(unsafe_code)] or not). You can then inspect those crates' sources to judge their use of unsafe for yourself. I don't think it has a "check" mode that simply errors if your dependency graph contains unsafe though, it's more about just collecting that information.

  • InfluxDB

    Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale. Get real-time insights from all types of time series data with InfluxDB. Ingest, query, and analyze billions of data points in real-time with unbounded cardinality.

  • hashbrown

    Rust port of Google's SwissTable hash map

  • To implement something that cannot be expressed in safe Rust, or at least cannot be expressed succinctly in safe Rust, like fundamental datastructures. The hashbrown crate contains a lot of unsafe code, but it's such high quality that it's now the backing implementation for std::collections::HashMap.

  • logos

    Create ridiculously fast Lexers (by maciejhirsz)

  • Is there a way for a lexer created with the logos crate (https://crates.io/crates/logos) to get the starting and ending positions for the tokens?

  • Cargo

    The Rust package manager

  • There's an issue on this that was never addressed. Personally I would just add a custom make setup and make test

  • book

    The Rust Programming Language

  • Considering your question, I recommend reading the Rust book.
