I mean, it's outperforming C as well in that particular benchmark.

Lies, damn lies, and benchmarks?

I can at least say, the performance difference between C, C++, and Rust, is splitting hairs.

If you want to write something performant, low level, with predictable timing, all three will work.

I'm spending a lot of time building projects with Rust & C++ these days. The issue/tradoff isn't performance with C++, but that C++ is better for writing unsafe code than Rust.
