    Looks like the only thing left is the rest runner, and it’s probably not happening anytime soon since it’s a ton of syscalls and Rust doesn’t really add any advantages there imo.

      The impression that I got is that while there is nothing more to port in the shell itself, the performance and concurrency goals haven’t been fully realized yet. The new Rust code needs a bit more tuning before it can replace the old shell.
