Features and purpose

Expert-level Rust performance optimization guidelines for build profiles, allocation, synchronization, async/await, and I/O. This skill should be used when writing, reviewing, or optimizing Rust code for performance. Triggers on tasks involving slow Rust code, large binary size, long compile times, LTO configuration, release profile tuning, allocation reduction, clone avoidance, lock contention, BufReader/BufWriter, flamegraph analysis, async runtime issues, Tokio performance, spawn_blocking, parking_lot vs std sync, or any Rust performance investigation.
