Check out my previous benchmarks on Rust-based DataFusion vs JVM-based Apache Spark workloads. It isn't just about raw performance numbers but also about resource requirements (especially RAM requirements when using JVM or similar GC-based languages). There are order-of-magnitude differences.

If you have tangible results then present your benchmarks. If you limit your marketing to empty claims regarding "the future" and vague assertions on performance then you're actually actively working to lower your credibility.

This is a personal open source project. I'm not sure I'm "marketing" it since I make zero dollars from this work.

For benchmarks, check out the past 18 months of posts on my blog. Here is the most recent:

Don't you think you are being unreasonably harsh? Why are you attacking somebody's open source project with such passion?

[andygrove]

Thanks eklavya but it's completely normal on HN to have trolls criticizing other people's work. Best thing is to just ignore them. They can move on to criticize other posts. Much easier than contributing.
