My feelings are hurt!

Nah, just kidding. An example of the kind of thing that might change, the current stdlib mutex implementation currently depends on pthread mutex objects, which can't be safely moved, so there's an additional allocation to box them. The parking_lot crate is an alternative implementation that interfaces with the system at a lower level, so can avoid this allocation.

I found I learned a lot about Rust's low level implementation details when making the chart, so can definitely see how it would be useful for such a class, and am very happy it's being used in this way.

By the way, I'm extremely sad to be missing your talk at the Recurse Center; I'm in Canada until Monday :(
