Research direction

Review the book's existing chapter structure and the linked rust-cli/team#29 discussion before defining the chapter's scope. Done means adding an in-depth performance chapter that covers common fast-I/O issues and solutions, plus pointers for profiling CLI applications.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Inspired by this comment and rust-cli/team#29 I've been thinking about adding an in-depth chapter for performance considerations.

The structure would be something like this:

  • Common issues and solutions around fast I/O
  • how to profile CLI apps (not a full guide but good pointers)
