Rust Is Hard, Or: The Misery of Mainstream Programming

The problem is there is more than one kind of "fast". There is latency "fast" and throughput "fast".

For a lot of web stuff you need throughput more than you need latency "fast".

In order to do throughput well you need concurrency.

There’s also how much it takes to hire 5 developers ”fast”. At least for now, Rust is not that performant on that respect.

Pretty sure you could hire 5 rust developers pretty easily. A lot of people in the rust community are dying to find a job that will let them write rust professionally...
