Helped my Dad build an Altair 8800b, and I've been surfing the computing tsunami ever since.

Rust is known to be "blazingly fast and memory-efficient" and there are ready-to-run commandline apps to help speed your system, file, and analysis tasks. Rust is easy to install and update - and so are the apps. Want to observe system performance? There's an app for that! What to check disk usage? There's an app for that too! Want to search a lot of files for a word, phrase, or regex? Yes, there's an app for that. AND, these apps run several times, to an order of magnitude faster than the typical system utilities. The presentation will include a sampling of useful and interesting apps written in Rust along with a demonstration of their performance.
