Most of Windows is written in C and C++. How would Rust help to reduce RAM usage?
- tcfhgj 6d agoWell that leaves up to almost 50% potentially not written in either language. And little code can already have a big impact, e.g. react native in start menu coupled with edge running in the background
- throwaway2037 4d agoThe best estimate that I could find says that Win11 is at least 85% C and C++. Where did you get your 50% value? Or do I misunderstand your comment?
