Today endler.dev/2017/yes/ was brought to my attention. Thanks for such a good explanation @matthiasendler!! My system: - GNU Yes: 6.60GiB/s - Rust version (optimized): 5.74GiB/s - In @nim_lang: 6.24GiB/s (only adding buffering over the naïve version which was ~60MiB/s).

And I forgot mentioning the optimized Rust version is 51 lines of horror...

You can use metaprogramming to unroll that stdout.write() at CT.

Not sure it will make any difference: 1. there's no data dependency between instructions within the loop. 2. the branch predictor at "while true" is always 100% right. 3. there's an inherent lock in the write() as it maps to a syscall(): we are at the mercy of the kernel anyway.

I used writeBuffer instead of write and looks faster in my system, not sure if you can test in your system.
