I agree the lack of documentation is not really encouraging to test. My guess (I am not related to the project) is that it's pretty experimental work for now, and authors may have focused more on optimizing for performance than on stabilizing things / documenting. But better guidance would help reach more users and get more feedback.
For my part I like the concept of using Rust features to provide packet isolation without having too much performance downgrade. Also, this is the first time I hear of Rust running on top of DPDK.
