Show HN: Fastest(?) SIMD CSV Parser in Rust

Hacker News - Sun, 02/15/2026 - 6:45pm

There are already a quite a few [0][1] CSV parsers that use SIMD, some in Rust, with a variety of approaches. I found simd-csv[1] to have a very interesting approach that leverages memchr to essentially "seek" for the next delimiter, reducing a lot of the overhead that a byte-by-byte CSV parser would have. However, as noted in the README, the creators of simd-csv explicitly chose not to use the classic pclmulqdq trick[2] that other libraries like simdjson use due to portability concerns. I set out to beat to simd-csv's implementation by building a parser more similar to Geoff Langdale's, using the pclmulqdq trick as well as optimized intrinsic usage for aarch64 platforms[3]. If anyone has feedback on the Rust code, or my usage of intrinsics, I would greatly appreciate it.

Ask HN: Is OpenClaw a groundbreaking feat, a highly useful product or both?

I am not trying to shit on it. I am just curious whether the code and approach itself was something a lot of people have previously tried and failed, like genome sequencing or the hypothetical Weissman score from HBO's Silicon Valley, or it is more of just a highly relevant product/utility that is not necessarily super complex, like Twitter when it came out or Vine, TikTok etc.

I don't think AGI is imminent
