Someone messaged me on linkedin asking if Rust 🦀 could speed up their R code? :rstat:
It's business critical but literally takes a day to run.

Using base R i got a 7x speed up.
Using Rust? I got a 200x speed up.

I cannot overstate how amazing Rust is for R.

Would you be intersted in a video on this process of speeding up R code and then rewriting in Rust?
