Rust has simd support, so maybe the latter is the issue.

not in stable yet
This is incorrect. Rust has had x86_64 (up to and including AVX2) intrinsics stable since Rust 1.26. Wasm32 simd128 and aarch64 neon intrinsics are also stable.
core::arch::x86_64::_mm256_shuffle_epi8 and such seem to be in stable.
AFAIK intrinsics are stable. Idk about auto-vectorizers and the like.
other commenters, call me when this issue is closed.
