The One Billion Row Challenge

Compute simple math over 1 billion rows, as fast as possible, without dependencies.

Modified, because this is really not a job for Java IMO. Let's Rust it up!

Generate the data file

There is a feature-gated binary which can create the appropriate measurements list, as follows:

time cargo run --release --features generator --bin generate 1000000000

Run the challenge

$ cargo build --release && time target/release/1brc >/dev/null
   Compiling one-billion-rows v0.1.0 (1brc)
    Finished release [optimized] target(s) in 0.62s

real    0m9.737s
user    1m15.772s
sys     0m1.607s

Optional Features

While the text of the challenge instructs us to use only the standard library, it's fun trying to eke out some extra performance by adding some dependencies.

  • fxhash: replaces the hash algorithm with a non-cryptographically-safe one which is approximately 1.2x quicker
