there was already an optimised c++ library and a rust port that was safer but less performant; they managed to get a new rust version that recovered a lot of the performance gap. sounds pretty damn good to me!

I'm just surprised that the marketing blog post about the omnipotent new AI model (that no one outside Google can currently access - contrast with the Opus 5.5 / Astra launches) - doesn't pick examples where every metric is better than before.

Just compare how much better presented the Astra announcement was compared to this one: https://openai.com/index/gpt-6-astra/
