SAS

SAS (Salty-And-Sweet) is an one-line Rust runtime optimization library.

Features

• NUMA-aware rayon: numa feature should be enabled
  • If you have 1 NUMA nodes, you can experience about 20% performance improvements if the tasks are completed at approximately equal times.
  • If you have 2+ NUMA nodes, you can experience extreme performance improvements.

Install

Simple one-shot mode

fn main() {
    // That's end!
    sas::init();

    // ... your heavy works
}

Advanced mode

TBD

Benchmarks

This sections describes the benchmark results. It uses default package features (zero-touch).

Note that the benchmark metrics are sensitive to process, so please benchmark each metric separately!

The lower elapsed time is the better.
