The Google Security Blog has a
new post on just how well the use of Rust is working out for the
Android project.
We adopted Rust for its security and are seeing a 1000x reduction
in memory safety vulnerability density compared to Android's C and
C++ code. But the biggest surprise was Rust's impact on software
delivery. With Rust changes having a 4x lower rollback rate and
spending 25% less time in code review, the safer path is now also
the faster one.
