[−][src]Crate memchr
The memchr
crate provides heavily optimized routines for searching bytes.
The memchr
function is traditionally provided by libc, however, the
performance of memchr
can vary significantly depending on the specific
implementation of libc that is used. They can range from manually tuned
Assembly implementations (like that found in GNU's libc) all the way to
non-vectorized C implementations (like that found in MUSL).
To smooth out the differences between implementations of libc, at least
on x86_64
for Rust 1.27+, this crate provides its own implementation of
memchr
that should perform competitively with the one found in GNU's libc.
The implementation is in pure Rust and has no dependency on a C compiler or an
Assembler.
Additionally, GNU libc also provides an extension, memrchr
. This crate
provides its own implementation of memrchr
as well, on top of memchr2
,
memchr3
, memrchr2
and memrchr3
. The difference between memchr
and
memchr2
is that that memchr2
permits finding all occurrences of two bytes
instead of one. Similarly for memchr3
.
