I am interested about the decision to use Rust for the new Prisma. What made you choose Rust? I understand that Java was not perfect for this, so I definitely support the rewrite. However, I just wondered what made you choose Rust (memory management, seems more complicated in general), over something simpler like Go (super easy, minimalistic, quite efficient GC)? Was it important to have a powerful language, to eliminate a GC completely, to fully optimize for the last bit of performance, or other reasons? Just curious about this. 😄 cc @dpetrick @do4gr

Where was this mentioned? The JVM baggage is rough, so the move is exciting. But other than trying to get a WASM compile play, I agree with you... why Rust? Go seems like a natural fit, or even for a distributed system, Elixir would have been interesting. Curious to learn more!

It is mentioned here: https://github.com/prisma/prisma/blob/master/ROADMAP.md#implementation-phase

Awesome, thank you! A couple of those improvements would be huge too!
