Zero to Performance Hero: How to Benchmark and Profile Your eBPF Code in Rust
In this article, we will walk through creating a basic eBPF program in Rust. We will intentionally include a performance regression and then use profilers to locate and fix the bug. We will also create benchmarks and track them using a continuous benchmarking tool for CI.

How to Use Rust Procedural Macros to Replace Panic with syn’s Fold
In this article, we show how you can write advanced macros to step through Rust code and modify it. Using the standard tooling available in the syn crate, we first show how to change the occurrence of a panic into an Err. Then we go a step beyond and use the Fold trait to recursively step through the entire function, automatically executing a change in every applicable location.

Designing for Concurrency: the Hilbert’s Hotel Problem in Go
In this article, we want to show how achieving concurrency is the result of an appropriate design. A concurrent solution may turn out to be more elegant and easier to reason about than an equivalent sequential algorithm. To illustrate these concepts we use, as an example, the Hilbert’s Hotel mathematical problem.
