Yeah I don't know why people are saying that speed doesn't matter. I use Homebrew and it is slow.

It's like yum vs apt in the Linux world. APT (C++) is fast and yum (Python) was slow. Both work fine, but yum would just add a few seconds, or a minute, of little frustrations multiple times a day. It adds up. They finally fixed it with dnf (C++) and now yum is deprecated.

Glad to hear a Rust rewrite is coming to Homebrew soon.
