Tachyon
Tachyon is a web server written in 100% unsafe Rust.
Yes — 100%. There isn’t a single safe block in the entire codebase. Safety is a suggestion, not a rule.
This implementation is intentionally modest in scope and supports only the /plaintext benchmark. No JSON, no databases, no distractions.
Goals
Tachyon is a server that makes no attempt to be fast, correct, or relevant.
It serves plaintext. Slowly. VERY slowly.
Nah... really... very slow.
Requirements
- Linux kernel 6.0+
- Rust nightly
- CPU with AVX2 support
We require a modern Linux kernel to ensure our experimental use of io_uring does not work on older systems. Nightly Rust is used to maintain maximum instability across compiler versions.
