alt Hacker News> Performance wise it's the first language in long time that isn't just an LLVM wrapper
Why? Because it uses MLIR? Rust has its own MIR, it's even more not-LLVM-wrapper.

Probably because the creator created both LLVM and MLIR.
I'd assume Mojo does more complex transformations at the MLIR level than Rust does at its MIR level.
