Announcing zune-jpeg: Rust's fastest JPEG decoder

This page summarizes the projects mentioned and recommended in the original post on /r/rust

Our great sponsors
  • WorkOS - The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS
  • InfluxDB - Power Real-Time Data Analytics at Scale
  • SaaSHub - Software Alternatives and Reviews
  • zune-image

    Development actually moved to https://github.com/etemesi254/zune-image repo - my bad, I've fixed it in the original post now. Sorry!

  • libjpeg-turbo

    Main libjpeg-turbo repository

    zune-jpeg is 1.5x to 2x faster than jpeg-decoder and is on par with libjpeg-turbo.

  • WorkOS

    The modern identity platform for B2B SaaS. The APIs are flexible and easy-to-use, supporting authentication, user identity, and complex enterprise features like SSO and SCIM provisioning.

  • image

    Encoding and decoding images in Rust (by image-rs)

    We're currently looking for contributors to add support for zune-jpeg to the image crate. The image maintainers are open to it, but don't have the capacity to do it themselves. You can find more details here.

  • zune-jpeg

    Discontinued A jpeg decoder with wings

    Congrats, but you dropped this.

  • Symphonia

    Pure Rust multimedia format demuxing, tag reading, and audio decoding library

    In other areas, miniz_oxide is faster than miniz, Symphonia is faster than ffmpeg on most codecs, the not-yet-announced zune-png beats both libpng and the more heavily optimized libspng, and the png crate is getting considerable improvements too and also beats libpng.

  • image-png

    PNG decoding and encoding library in pure Rust

    In other areas, miniz_oxide is faster than miniz, Symphonia is faster than ffmpeg on most codecs, the not-yet-announced zune-png beats both libpng and the more heavily optimized libspng, and the png crate is getting considerable improvements too and also beats libpng.
