As everything, there are compromises and prices to pay.

In case of fil-c, it is about 1.5-4x slower performance, and a memory overhead.

So, let's not present it as a panacea to all problems: there could good reasons to use it, but it isn't a magic trick.

Rust is slower too, and git is IO bound anyway, and routinely calls bash.

Rust is not 1.5-4x slower at all. Git is not IO bound at all, it is not saturating your IO device, it just performs IO a lot.
