Tackling The One Billion Row Challenge In Rust

187 points barr520 49 comments

Hi everyone,
I just published my blog post about my solution and optimizations to the one billion row challenge, in Rust.
The goal of the one billion row challenge is to parse a text file containing a billion temperature measurements from different weather stations and produce a report, as fast as possible.
This is my first time sharing my blog(there are a few other posts there I never actually promoted..), and any feedback, questions, corrections, etc. are welcome(here or in the comments on the website).

warning: it is very long.

Enjoy
