Unlike say, coreutils, ntp is something very far from being a solved problem and the memory safety of the solution is unfortunately going to play second fiddle to its efficacy.
For example, we only use chrony because it’s so much better than whatever came with your system (especially on virtual machines). ntpd-rs would have to come at least within spitting distance of chrony’s time keeping abilities to even be up for consideration.
(And I say this as a massive rust aficionado using it for both work and pleasure.)
