A tiny throwaway benchmarking tool to quickly compare Rust's ignore
and walkdir crates with Ruby's native Find and my
fast_find gem.
My use-case for this is walking CVS trees to find updated files for the FreshBSD backend to process, so that's what I tested with.
ignore and fast_find are both multi-threaded, while walkdir and Find are
both sequential.
FreeBSD 12.0-RELEASE, 11.2-RELEASE jail environment (due to ongoing JRuby stat breakage on 12), JRuby 9.2.5.0, on a 24-way Xeon L5639 with mirrored SSDs on ZFS and huge gobs of RAM.
