Bullet-point meme objections. GC's fine, Pleroma's not memory-bound. VM's fine, it's not CPU-bound either. It's I/O-bound, leans hard on Postgres. Maybe we should add manual memory management to Postgres, start shipping binaries to the DB instead of letting it parse queries. Why bother with Rust anyway? C ticks off the same bullets and the compiler doesn't take a year to run.
