Re: Bloody Rust
I disagree, while you may think storage is essentially free, I'm aware of certain Linux projects and embedded systems that load the entire OS, including drivers and applications into RAM disc and operate with no hard disc in 1GByte of RAM so rust is a massive disadvantage if it produces binaries significantly larger than the C equivalent. As I understand it while there are some size optimisations you just can't achieve the tiny sizes of a C binary.
Unfortunately just that one thing puts me right off Rust being used in the Linux kernel.
