>> Why is this? Why Rust is not loved there? History and demand. CUDA is about 15 years old. MPI and similar parallel computing APIs are even older. C, C++, and Fortran have been the "goto" programming languages for parallel and scientific computing for decades. Rust is a relative newcomer that does not have enough demand yet to mandate CUDA APIs. It probably will some day. Another concern is the number of decades-mature libraries that are used in parallel computing domains. It seems much more likely that any Rust support will initially be Rust wrappers around C or C++ APIs rather than native Rust implementations. Some projects for Rust on CUDA are in progress: https://github.com/Rust-GPU/Rust-CUDA https://github.com/bheisler/RustaCUDA |
