Re:Actix Web: Optimization Amongst Optimizations

I see it also as a success story for Cargo. Actix can be optimized from top to bottom, without being a monolithic framework. It doesn't have to reinvent and optimize every component itself.
The SSE-accelerated escaping, postgres driver, and state-of-the-art hash tables are all packages that can be used without Actix. And Actix can take advantage of them without undue runtime overhead (thanks to generics+inlining) and without burdening users with build/install complexity (it depends on over 140 packages, and Cargo seamlessly takes care of that).
