As an experiment/exercise this is cool, but having a 100k loc codebase to maintain in a language I’ve never used sounds like a nightmare scenario.

I think the plan is for Claude to maintain it. He hasn't read a single line of code.

I kind of expect that code to be full of non-idiomatic Rust code that mimics a GC'ed language...

Once that's also "fixed", it may well be a lot faster than the current Rust version.
