Rust Wrocław Meetup #25

We want to invite you to an online event during which we will have one of our members giving a talk about programming with Rust. We hope you will enjoy this form of event(s).

18:00 Introduction

18:10: "Why do I avoid Box, and how it's not all about performance?" by Bartłomiej Kuras

It is common knowledge, that the dyn Trait syntax has some overhead related to a thing called "virtual dispatch". It is also known, that the overhead on its own is not always so much of a problem that it rules out using the convenient Box. In this talk, I would like to give you my thoughts – why I strongly avoid using Box in my code and when I eventually accept its usage. I will focus mostly on issues not directly related to the virtual call performance, but performance would also have its place at the end of the talk.

Language: English

19:00 Discussion, Q&A...
