Great post!

I wrote a (fast?) fsmonitor hook in Rust...benchmarked against the reference Perl implementation it's quite a bit faster. On a repo of 130k files, my monitor is able to `git status` in 18 millseconds.

Which operating system are you using? That's impressive. More importantly, our hook doesn't support the new query version so we might want to switch.
I use macOS, but some folks have contributed a linux package / installer. And yeah, I added the v2 of the hook recently which is even faster!
