fastcat

This is a cat implementation in Rust using Linux' splice syscall.

Read the full article here.

With that little trick, it's twice as fast as the system cat in my tests.

You probably won't ever need that, but it's a fun little experiment. Still, I wonder why this is not part of e.g. GNU cat...

What I like the most about the project is the logo.
