As part of my PhD studies, I’m working on a distributed task runtime called HyperQueue. Its goal is to provide an ergonomic and efficient way to execute task graphs on High-Performance Computing (HPC) distributed clusters, and one of its duties is to be able to spawn a large amount of Linux processes efficiently. HyperQueue is of course written in Rust1, and it uses the standard library’s Command API to spawn processes2. When I was benchmarking how quickly it can spawn processes on an HPC...| Kobzol’s blog

Using async in Rust can lead to bad surprises. I recently came across a particularly gnarly one, and I thought it was interesting enough to share a little discussion. I think that we are too used to the burden of separating async from blocking being on the programmer, and Rust can and should do better, and so can operating system APIs, especially in subtle situations like the one I describe here.| The Coded Message
