--- title: "1brc" date: 2024-02-01T13:58:47Z draft: false --- I [had a go](https://code.mfashby.net/z1brc/file/src/main.zig.html) at the [One Billion Row Challenge](https://github.com/gunnarmorling/1brc), but in Zig rather than Java. I got down to about 10 seconds :) the leading java solution runs in 2 seconds on my desktop machine (and that's without speedup from using GraalVM)
