# mapsize — Rust port
|
||
|
||
A port of the Go implementation (repo root) to Rust, with the same CLI, TUI,
|
||
keys, themes and snapshot format. `.msz` snapshots are byte-compatible in
|
||
both directions. The code is Linux/Unix only; the Windows code paths were
|
||
not ported.
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
cd rust
|
||
cargo build --release # target/release/mapsize
|
||
cargo test --release # 69 tests (ported from the Go suites, fuzz tests excepted)
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
Module layout mirrors `internal/`: `inventory`, `scan`, `platform`, `treemap`,
|
||
`filter`, `snapshot` (+ `compare`), `duplicate`, `export`, `config`,
|
||
`textutil`, `tui`, `app`. The tree is shared as `Arc<RwLock<Tree>>` with the
|
||
same single-writer invariants as ARCHITECTURE.md; `cancel::Cancel` replaces
|
||
`context.Context`; crossterm replaces Bubble Tea as the event loop (the
|
||
canvas renderer is ported as-is, plus line-diffed frame output).
|
||
|
||
## Known differences from Go
|
||
|
||
* `--log`/`--log-level` are accepted but there is no debug log yet.
|
||
* A scanner thread panic restores the terminal and aborts the process instead
|
||
of returning an "internal error" message.
|
||
* The colour profile is detected from `NO_COLOR`/`TERM`/`COLORTERM` only (no
|
||
terminal query); `--color` still overrides.
|
||
* JSON export does not HTML-escape `<>&`; `started` is written in UTC.
|
||
* The filter lexer no longer hangs on queries containing bytes Go treats as
|
||
white space but never skips (e.g. `voilà`, whose UTF-8 contains 0xA0).
|
||
* Huge sizes saturate rather than wrap in filters and snapshot comparison.
|
||
|
||
## Benchmarks
|
||
|
||
Machine: Intel Core i7-7700 (4C/8T), 32 GiB, ext4 on md RAID over 7200 rpm
|
||
HDDs. Go 1.27.1, Rust 1.91.1 (`lto`, `codegen-units = 1`). The host was
|
||
shared and heavily loaded during the runs (load average 30–50 on 8 threads),
|
||
so absolute times are inflated 2–4× compared with PERFORMANCE.md. To keep the
|
||
comparison fair, Go and Rust runs were interleaved and the tables report
|
||
best-of (micro) or median and best (end-to-end). Re-run on an idle machine
|
||
before quoting absolute numbers:
|
||
|
||
```
|
||
go test -c -o /tmp/tui.test ./internal/tui && go test -c -o /tmp/treemap.test ./internal/treemap
|
||
(cd rust && cargo build --release --example bench)
|
||
rust/bench/micro.py /tmp/tui.test /tmp/treemap.test rust/target/release/examples/bench 5
|
||
rust/bench/compare.py bin/mapsize rust/target/release/mapsize ~/go/pkg/mod 7
|
||
```
|
||
|
||
### In-process (Go `go test -bench` suite vs `examples/bench.rs`)
|
||
|
||
The tree is 1,008,201 synthetic nodes, rendered at 200×60.

|
||
|
||
Reading the numbers:
|
||
|
||
* **Scanning** is syscall-bound (`statx`/`getdents` were about 60% of Go's
|
||
profile), so wall time is roughly at parity. Rust edges ahead at high
|
||
worker counts. The single-worker case is about 15% slower, but that run was
|
||
the noisiest of the set.
|
||
* **Memory**: peak RSS is 30–48% lower (78 MB vs 113 MB while scanning
|
||
458k nodes). The JSON export streams without Go's per-node allocations
|
||
(79 MB vs 152 MB).
|
||
* **Snapshots**: loading is about 1.7× faster on the median. The two binaries
|
||
load each other's files.
|
||
* **UI**: cold frames are 3–3.8× faster, and squarified layout is about 13×
|
||
faster. Navigation and resize gain less (1.2–1.5×) because they mostly
|
||
reuse cached layout.
|
||
* **Filters**: 1.3–2.5× faster. This required caching lower-cased directory
|
||
paths in a `Vec` with reused buffers, and a `*.ext` fast path in the
|
||
`filepath.Match` port.
