Rust Coreutils 0.8 was released today as the newest major release to this alternative to GNU Coreutils.
Rust Coreutils 0.8 is described as bringing "significant" performance gains across core utilities, expanded WebAssembly "WASI" support with a new online playground, and hardening against edge-case panics.
With the expanded WebAssembly support is also a new online playground [1]here for trying out Rust Coreutils within your web browser.
Rust Coreutils 0.8 is passing around 94.74% of all the GNU test suite cases, up 0.15% from the prior release. Rust Coreutils has also removed more unsafe code from different core utilities.
Some of the performance work is leading to the dd command being around 45% faster, faster start-up across utilities, the sort command will now sort paths faster, a 3% gain for numfmt, and various other optimizations.
