My goals with TRust-DNS are a little more than just shiny new language. I really want to leverage Rust's safety guarantees, especially in regards building high performance implementations for core tools like this. I believe that with Rust we can produce more hardened software and deliver at a faster pace than other more traditional low level languages.
I haven't yet had a chance to really optimize the library. In my measurements for example, BIND responds to queries in 100 micro-seconds, whereas TRust-DNS is now down to 250 (on my local system, YMMV). There are a couple of low-hanging fruit things that I hope to get to soon, that should bring that down significantly.
