I wrote a blurb about writing a multithreaded unzip utility: https://medium.com/@adetaylor/fearless-concurrency-a-practical-win-ae59e613c7ab #rustlang
@adetaylor Interesting read! any idea why accessing zipped files requires mutability though? is it because of how huffman algorithm works? could that be isolated to an iterator?
it would seem that dropping mutability should permit concurrent extraction with further speed improvements.
side thought, but it's surprising how rust enables questions like this. thanks for putting this together!
