Rust and Indirection!
Abstractions can come at a COST, and while Rust is quite good at giving us zero-cost abstractions, UNDERSTANDING this can be important.
The The Cost of Indirection by Josh Mcguigan INFORMS us of this matter.
It has some example BENCHMARKS of common cases of indirection in Rust and their performance IMPACTS.
This is a matter that I think I should STUDY more.
