Rewriting the GNU Coreutils in Rust

"IO is slow" is an old and now outdated idea. It takes several CPU cores to make use of multiple Intel P5800X drives. The P5800X is the new Optane based PCIe 4 drive.

The new game consoles are using tricks to transfer data directly from NVMe to the GPU. Because the CPU is slow, busy and doesn't need to be involved.

Anyway, to repeat myself, storage and network IO is rapidly catching up in speed as CPU speed stalls out in favor of multiple cores.
