DHH's Rust Rewrite of Campfire Delivers Massive Speed Gains
Original: DHH's Rust Rewrite of Campfire Delivers Massive Speed Boosts
David Heinemeier Hansson has rewritten Campfire, the web-based team chat tool from 37signals, using Rust, with reports of large performance improvements over the original Rails version. The move has sparked debate in developer communities about the trade-offs between developer productivity in Ruby and raw runtime performance from systems languages.
Why now: DHH is a prominent critic of Rust, so his apparent embrace of it for a real product challenges his long-standing Ruby-first position and fuels the Ruby versus Rust performance debate.
