You're free to suggest another method of comparing the two languages' performance. This is the best we're have, and Rust wins in every single benchmark shown there.
These aren’t the results of code written by an average programmer.

I like Rust and all but we do need to admit it doesn’t magically solve all our problems.
I never said it did. I simply pointed out that it's demonstrably faster than Swift.
This post is so full of inaccuracies that I don't know where to begin. I'll just mention the first thing I noticed: just because drivers are compiled with the kernel doesn't mean they're all loaded at runtime. modprobe exists for a reason.
Nobody who packages debs are updating their applications for jammy anymore. Anything I install is several versions old at this point.
