And yet, real world production rust programs exist and measured performance is generally excellent.

People are acting like this graph they saw for the first time today means that Rust is running at sub-Ruby speeds, when even with these excess copies we already know, and have known for years how rust programs have been performing in real life.

That there is room for improvement here does not mean that the status quo was not already excellent.
