It's still an impressive achievement that would have taken even the most competent engineers an exponentially longer time to accomplish.

I just hope it's noted when this is eventually marketed how much human effort went into designing and curating the test suite that even enabled this speed in the first place.

A test suite sort of functions exactly like the ideal scenario for current gen llms. A comprehensive enough test suite essentially forms the spec for agents to implement however they see fit - in this case rust.

You could probably throw away the entire actual source code in certain cases and reimplement the whole thing from scratch just giving an agent access to the tests when it's as well crafted as a project like bun.
