gollark: Quite a lot of the time I don't care a massive amount about performance, as long as my thing isn't horrendously slow, because it's serving not very much traffic on a server with quite a lot of free resources.
gollark: Well, it is harder to have to semi-manually manage memory than to have it garbage collected, and it has issues like being stuck in the middle of moving to asynchronous code right now.
gollark: (praise Rust™, although I still find it somewhat harder to write stuff in than JS or whatever so I only use it for my more perf-sensitive projects)
gollark: Like Rust's `Option`, which is optimized to use null pointers or something, meaning it's basically only a compile-time performance cost.
