Nevermind that the C++ program is two orders of magnitude faster when completed.

I would love to learn and use Rust but I'm a embedded systems guy. Everything of consequence is C and C++.

If the embedded system is old or poorly-maintained enough, there might be more Rust than you'd think.

There's embedded rust for a few platforms. Using it on ESPs is fun

I meant faster than Python, not faster than Rust. Rust is fast.
