For the most part, doing things right in the given language matters more than change of language. A lot of refactors in Rust (in the coding agent space) I see jump straight to Rust without considering what inefficiencies can be addressed before changing the language.

Having said that, I considered a Go/Rust rewrite of Dirac (https://github.com/dirac-run/dirac) for some modules to support cases when someone wants to run like 30 agents, but it quickly became obvious that, a) while the node event loop is a bottleneck, it is not the sole bottleneck and b) if you have a VSCode extension, you can't totally get rid of TypeScript, so it just becomes the case of bi-lingual project and the maintenance burden that comes with it
