List of crates that improves or experiments with Rust, but may be hard to find

Let's list here crates that enhance Rust as a language.

It not "batteries" like in stdx, but Rust-specific crates for workarounds for various missing features and experimental ideals from non-accepted/postponed RFCs, or just hacky tricks.

The list is supposed to contain (mostly) crates that are internal to Rust, not ones for making Rust deal with "external world" like other languages bindings, file formats, protocols and so on.

Primary focus should be on crates that are not easy to find by conventional means (e.g. no algorithm name, format or protocol to search for).

Note that quality of the listed crates may vary from proof-of-concept to stable-and-widely-used.

Optimizing postgresql table for more than 100K inserts per second

Optimizing postgresql table for more than 100K inserts per second

  • Create UNLOGGED table. This reduces the amount of data written to persistent storage by up to 2x.
  • Set WITH (autovacuum_enabled=false) on the table. This saves CPU time and IO bandwidth on useless vacuuming of the table (since we never DELETE or UPDATE the table).
  • Insert rows with COPY FROM STDIN. This is the fastest possible approach to insert rows into table.
  • Minimize the number of indexes in the table, since they slow down inserts. Usually an index on time timestamp with time zone is enough.
  • Add synchronous_commit = off to postgresql.conf.
  • Use table inheritance for fast removal of old data:
