Oh good to know. I track the uptime of various git forge web hosting and haven’t been impressed by codeberg. But I just switched my test repo over to their git-pages approach. It was pretty easy, did it from my phone.

I’ll see if the migrated test repo has better uptime.

I think it’s the comparison to existing systems that falls flat for me. They imply that existing S3-based Git repos can handle, perhaps, hundreds of pushes per second with tens or maybe hundreds of milliseconds of latency. Those are already fantastic numbers that far outpace the needs of even purely agentic workflows. There is already tons of spare capacity.

It feels like trying to sell a car as having a top speed that is faster than the competition when the competition is already significantly faster than the speed limit. If the acceleration or handling is better, then market that. Otherwise it’s a vanity metric.

7,600+ concurrent pushes per second on a single repository at millisecond latency; more than an order of magnitude faster than existing solutions

I’ve found that lots of pushes (hundreds per hour for a dozen developers) usually means that there’s a CI system that runs tests that aren’t running locally. I usually fix that by helping developers get their tests running on their local systems. That tends to get them faster feedback than having commits wait in a CI/CD queue, so they prefer it.

If a project is really seeing thousands of pushes per second I suspect they are doing something quite wrong.

Oh I’m glad I found SequenceHash. I’ve noticed bugs in tuple hashing schemes before but didn’t realize there was a formal solution. I always learn something from this series.

Note that the rustdoc search is still available when you’re on rustdoc pages.

Oh I looked right past it, that is helpful.

Beautiful results. I’ve done this in the past and gave up on consistent theming.

The 1st result comes from Doxygen, the 2nd and 3rd come from Sphinx, and the 4th comes from rustdoc.

This surprises me. If I’m looking at the rust docs, getting results for C/C++ would feel distracting. Is there a way to show just the rust docs if I’ve drilled down to that language?
