I posed this question to this list a few years ago, but don’t recall much
participation - let’s try again :).
Has anyone moved their C, C++, Java, whatever low latency/high perf systems
(or components thereof) to Rust? If so, what type of system/component? What
has been your experience? Bonus poin
FWIW, I’ve only seen lfence used precisely in the 2 cases mentioned in this
thread:
1) use of non-temporal loads (ie weak ordering, normal x86 guarantees go
out the window)
2) controlling execution of non-serializing instructions like rdtsc
I’d be curious myself to hear of other cases.
