No offense to Tokio and Rust, I really like Rust, but having someone rewriting their app because of performance limitations in their previous language choice, isn’t really someone picking the right tool for the job necessary.
I’m not so sure they would have done the rewrite if the Go GC was performing better, and the choice of Rust seems primarily based on prior experience at the company writing performance sensitive code rather than delivering business value.
