I'm curious if anyone else has noticed this? It seems Rust is tending towards "silver bullet"-status, as if; if it's written in Rust, it must be fast.
I'm not here to rain on Rust's parade, but you can absolutely write unmaintainable, slow Rust code. I would even argue, beginners write fewer features that perform worse, in the same amount of time, than their main-language (in this example: Javascript) counterparts. Especially if they have years of experience.
