Facts right here. I love Rust and my day job is Python. Neither is too slow for most of my use cases. Though one cool thing about Rust is the super low overhead. So well-written Rust, much like well-written C, is great for low-power devices. Still, the database is going to be memory, IOPS and maybe CPU hungry as it grows. You can optimize data structures, but you still need to read said data.
Addendum: Yes we know that you think ml/hexbear/grad are tankies and or .world are a bunch of liberals but it gets old quickly. Try and come up with new material.
This is not the place to start flamewars between Lemmy, Mbin and Piefed.
