Serverless Speed: Rust vs. Go, Java, and Python in AWS Lambda Functions

At Scanner.dev , we use serverless Lambda functions to perform fast full-text search over large volumes of logs in data lakes, and our queries need to be lightning fast. We use Rust for this use case, but we wanted to know how Rust compared with Go, Java, and Python in terms of performance. We pitted the four languages against one another to see which was the fastest, and here is what we found.
