Django isn't exactly fast, so I decided to rewrite it in Rust; within less than a week, I reached this point—performance increased twentyfold, and the size dropped from 2 GB to 70 MB.

  I am genuinely more interested in Rust than in Go; this decision is driven partly by a forward-looking perspective and partly by personal interest, as I have already started expanding my own knowledge of Rust.

    I see, I also have that reason to use rust in almost all of my projects

  Exactly the final package size dropped from around 2 GB to 63 MB, and idle RAM usage went from( about ) 2 GB down to 8 MB! For a company running Kubernetes and clusters, RAM usage is likely a significant factor these days, especially given the cost of server rentals. (bec Artificial intelligence has driven up the price of RAM.)
