Rust Compiler Performance Triage

Some noisy benchmarks impeded performance review this week. There was a notable improvement to a broad range of primary benchmarks, first from PR #108440, which revised the encodable proc macro to handle the discriminant separately from its fields, and second from PR #108375, which inlined a number of methods that had only a single caller. Both of these PR's were authored by the same contributor; many thanks Zoxc!

Triage done by @pnkfelix. Revision range: 3fee48c1..31f858d9

5 Regressions, 4 Improvements, 6 Mixed; 6 of them in rollups 39 artifact comparisons made in total

Call for Testing

An important step for RFC implementation is for people to experiment with the implementation and give feedback, especially before stabilization. The following RFCs would benefit from user testing before moving forward:

  • No RFCs issued a call for testing this week.

If you are a feature implementer and would like your RFC to appear on the above list, add the new call-for-testing label to your RFC along with a comment providing testing instructions and/or guidance on which aspect(s) of the feature need testing.

Quote of the Week

You've probably come across unsafe. So "unsafe" is a keyword that sort of unlocks super powers and segfaults.
