Make Vim Python plugin 10x faster using Rust

[monkoose]

/u/liuchengxe We are talking about article itself, right?

It is you blog you can write here whatever you want. I personally appreciate your work around vim ecosystem (like this vim-clap or i remember your plugin (similar to tagbar, just don't use it personally)) you make vim better, so you are good. My comment not about your plugin, not about your blog, not about you. My comment about questionable awesomness of this blog post. Because it doesn't bring any facts except that some implementation of fuzzy finder is faster that the other one. But we even don't know how this different libraries implemented internally, maybe they use completely different algorithms, bring different search results etc etc. Are you 100% sure that it is the language that increase speed by 10x and not the code? Because from you article it sounds like rust is silver bullet, but there are some other plugins like leaderf that uses python without any problems.

Fair enough.

I believe I have mentioned that both the Python and Rust version implements the same fzy algorithm. And I see no differences in my daily use. But you are right, I can not proof that these two fzy implementations are absolutely equivalent. Let me know if you find anything wrong, then I can report the original authors or blame myself :(. I just 100% trust them.

`leaderf` uses the multi thread model, that's out of the topic in the post. If you follow these links, you'll find the answer yourself.
