I deal with a lot of ragged data that is hard to vectorize, and currently write cython kernels when the inner loops take too long. Sounds like Rust might be faster than cython? Thanks for the feedback.

Also it might take 20x less RAM compared to using Python objects like sets and dicts. In Rust there's no garbage collection, and you can lay out memory by hand exactly as you want.
