    Once you're past the fundamentals, if find yourself interested in high-performance networking, I recommend looking into userspace networking and NIC device drivers. The Intel 82599ES has a freely available (and readable!) data sheet, DPDK has a great book, ixy [1] has a wonderful paper and repo. It's a great way to go beyond the basics of networking and CPU performance. It's even more approachable today with XDP – you don't need to write device-specific code.

    Looks like you're compiling C code with -O2. Does Rust build set -O3 on clang? Did you try -O3 with C? I know it's not guaranteed to be faster, just curious.
