I found this part of your comment interesting, given that Rust is in someways being offered as an alternative to C++ for similar use cases.

What would you like to see different in a language that you see as the common issue with C++ and Rust?

edit: I misread the parent comment, the question should be disregarded.

I'm pretty sure he/she was saying they want to see something like Elasticsearch written in Rust/C++ rather than Java and made to be less bloated and less complex.

I would also be very interested in that. Elasticsearch usually works very well for me, especially the latest version, but it feels very heavy, and seems to only be getting worse in that regard.

Oh! I completely misread that. Thanks for clarifying.
