  Python library to decode StarCraft II replay protocols

  

  vm = virtual machine/memory?

  I'm porting this Python library to Rust: https://github.com/Blizzard/s2protocol.

  For the shitty, first pass prototype code I've written so far I've seen a ~30-40x speedup compared to the Python implementation and a ~2x speedup compared to a Go implementation by someone else: https://github.com/icza/s2prot.

  That is why I chose Rust over a GC language like Go. It's a lot faster out of the box, even without me having a strong understanding of memory operations.

  > I wonder if there is a subset of Rust that can be extracted someone into a new, minimal language with the core benefits.

  That is basically what Val aims to do:

  https://www.val-lang.dev/

  It has Rust-style ownership to guarantee memory safety, but without the complexity of lifetimes.

  There is still a borrow-checker-like component, but I believe it should be much simpler than Rust's. In particular it infers how to call functions automatically (see "method bundles" and how they are called).

  Still in the research phase. It is an open question how well this approach scales.

  Good news! Complexity isn't a baseline requirement: it's possible to make a language that follows the basic patterns of an average Rust program. It's what we're doing in Vale [0].

  It turns out, they key is to move some checks to run-time [1] to reduce complexity, move other checks instead to compile-time [2] where it doesn't increase complexity, and then make the borrow checker "opt-in" instead of forcing it to be used everywhere [3].
