@claudioandre-br Cool. It looks like you found a way to avoid the slow pass for the same input size in the same memory size? I wonder how you did that,...

I have mixed feelings about this. On one hand, I think Rust is a good language and a good fit for _future_ projects like ours (not without drawbacks, though). On...

For tiny things like this, I think it's actually preferable to stay with sometimes out-of-date but reviewed and tested by us, than to have easy auto-updates. Such micro-dependencies remind me...
