About a year ago, Hetzner launched the AX162 server line. It offered better price / performance than its predecessor, AX161. We were very excited to adopt it, but we soon encountered serious reliability issues. We observed that the new servers had 16 times higher annual failure rates.
Memory safety and sandboxing are two different things. It's reasonable to think of them as orthogonal: you could have memory safety but not be sandboxed, or you could be sandboxed but not memory safe.
We've released version 0.4.2 of zlib-rs , featuring a number of substantial performance improvements. We are now (to our knowledge) the fastest api-compatible zlib implementation for decompression, and beat the competition in the most important compression cases too.

Threads, TLS, a C stdlib race, and Rust: how EdgeDB hit a hidden landmine.
Cloudflare investigated CPU performance benchmark results for Workers, uncovering and fixing issues in infrastructure, V8 garbage collection, and OpenNext optimizations. These improvements have made Cloudflare Workers faster for all customers.
Can we have a faster FFI for CRuby? Yes.
In a really broad sense, the history of observability tools over the past couple of decades have been about a pretty simple concept: how do we make terabytes of heterogeneous telemetry data comprehensible to human beings? We’ve seen different companies tackle this in different ways for technology like Ruby on Rails…
Git's new bundle-uri could help significantly speed up clones, but what bugs lurk within?
Linaro Connect 2025 showcases progress in bringing Linux on Snapdragon-Powered Devices
Sourcing data directly from disk IS faster than caching in memory. I brought receipts. Because hardware got wider but not faster, the old methods don't get you there. You need new tools to use what is scaling and avoid what isn't.
Try the first release of the QNX Developer Desktop, a self‑hosted QNX development environment that eliminates cross‑compilation for faster workflows.
Radar offers geocoding, place search, and fraud detection APIs, powered by HorizonDB, a Rust-based engine delivering 20k QPS and sub-millisecond latency.
