Got the OK to try Rust as a Python replacement for a small internal tool when we maxed the system's RAM. The Rust version took 1/10 the memory.

After after a few more internal successful changes to Rust, we now have one public tool developed in Rust.

The language is amazimg. Used to be C for performance, Python for the rest. No more C for us. We even use Python less.
