I made a build profiler to understand Bun's compile times
Lalit Maganti built buildprof, an open-source Linux tool that records every process spawned during a build and renders them on a shared timeline. He used it to investigate the 5x speed difference between Bun's Zig and Rust builds, tracing the bottleneck to Full LTO in the linker and a downloaded WebKit library that amplified it.

Guest Post: Rust Is Tier-1 Language at Microsoft
Victor Ciura from Microsoft DevDiv announces that Rust has achieved Tier-1 language status at Microsoft, meaning it now has a fully paved path from local development to production. The post introduces rustc_codegen_utc, a new Rust code-generation backend that connects the Rust compiler to Microsoft's native MSVC toolchain.

Introducing CUDA Rust: Two Tracks for Writing GPU Kernels
In September 2026, NVIDIA announced it is leaning into native GPU programming in Rust. CUDA C++ and CUDA Python are mature, enterprise-grade toolchains, and NVIDIA will be growing and maturing CUDA Rust into 2027 and beyond The systems layer of AI spans inference engines, serving infrastructure, drivers, and agent runtimes, and it churns constantly as models and techniques change. More and more of it is written in Rust, which catches whole classes of bugs at compile time…

React Now Rusted All The Way Out
Master.dev describes switching a 1,036-file React Router codebase from the Babel-based React Compiler to the new Rust-native version available via oxc, achieving a 17.6x speedup in the compiler phase and a 2.4x overall build improvement. The post also covers how to migrate using both the official Vite plugin and an alternative for React Router framework mode.

Visualizing Rust's Vtables: How dyn Trait Works In Memory
A Rust learner coming from C++ examines how dynamic dispatch works in memory, contrasting Rust's wide pointer approach, a data pointer paired with a vtable pointer, with C++'s in-object vtable pointer. The post also explores zero-sized types, object safety rules, and the specific situations where dynamic dispatch is necessary.

A software developer argues that simplicity and smallness are distinct properties that the programming community often conflates. Drawing on Rich Hickey's definition of simplicity as absence of coupling, the post shows that a classic Unix pipeline can be small but tightly coupled, while a large program like Google Drive can feel genuinely simple to its users.

Developing provably correct Rust code with Verus
Many open-source and industry software projects, including several here at Amazon, are embracing the Rust programming language, since it provides performance and flexibility similar to that of the C programming language, while its clever type system automatically prevents a variety of bugs and security vulnerabilities. The result is fast code that's more correct and secure than average.
