Server-side JavaScript runtime "Bun 1.4" officially released. Rewrite from Zig to Rust reduces idle CPU usage to 1/5 and cuts memory consumption by up to 32%. Node.js compatibility also improved.
Jarred Sumner, creator of Bun, used Claude Fable 5 to migrate 530,000 lines of Zig code to Rust in 11 days. The upcoming Bun 1.4 will feature Rust. Major results include eliminating memory leaks and reducing binary size by around 20%.
