Open-source project – HTTP cache and reverse proxy
Why advCache? Throughput: 160–170k RPS locally; ~250k RPS sustained on 24‑core bare‑metal with a 50GB cache. Memory safety: 1.5–3GB overhead at 50GB (no traces); ~7GB at 100% OTEL sampling. Hot path discipline: zero allocations, sharded counters, per‑shard LRU, TinyLFU admission. Control plane: runtime API for toggles (admission, eviction, refresh, compression, observability). Observability: Prometheus/VictoriaMetrics metrics + OpenTelemetry tracing. Kubernetes‑friendly: health probes, config via ConfigMap, Docker image.
Open-source project – HTTP cache and reverse proxy launched on October 1, 2025 with 6 votes and more than 75% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 1 year on.
What it does
Advanced Cache (advCache): high‑performance in‑memory HTTP cache & reverse proxy built in Rust (tokio, axum). 175k+ RPS, sharded storage, TinyLFU admission, background refresh, Prometheus & OpenTelemetry.
High‑performance, production‑ready in‑memory HTTP cache & reverse proxy built with Rust. Designed for latency‑sensitive workloads with exceptional throughput and minimal memory overhead. AdvCache is a high-performance, production-ready in-memory HTTP cache and reverse proxy designed for latency-sensitive workloads. Built with Rust using tokio and axum , it delivers exceptional throughput with minimal memory overhead and zero-allocation hot paths. Built with async I/O using tokio and axum for high concurrency and low latency. Zero-allocation hot paths with sharded storage minimize lock contention and ensure predictable response times. 175k RPS locally, up to 300k RPS on 24-core bare-metal…from borislavv.github.io

OpenObserve – Elasticsearch/Datadog alternative2023 · github.com · ▲198Hello folks, We are launching OpenObserve. An open source Elasticsearch/Splunk/Datadog alternative written in rust and vue that is super easy to get started with and has 140x lower storage cost compared to elasticsearch. It offers logs, metrics, traces, dashboards, alerts, functions (run aws lambda like functions during ingestion and query to enrich, redact, transform, normalize and whatever else you want to do. Think redacting email IDs from logs, adding geolocation based on IP address, etc). You can do all of this from the UI, no messing up with configuration files. OpenObserve…
Cuts Long Horizon Inference Costs by 50% via external KV Cache OffloadJul 2026 · github.com · ▲22Hey HN, we’re the developers of OpenLake, an open source storage engine for offloading LLM KV caches from GPU memory into a shared tier of RAM and NVMe. We built OpenLake because KV caches are outgrowing GPU memory. A single 256K token conversation on Gemma 4 31B produces approximately 43GB of KV state, more than half the memory of an 80GB H100. The problem becomes even harder across a cluster: a prefix cached on one GPU host is unavailable when the next request lands on a different GPU, forcing the new GPU to repeat work the fleet has already completed. Once the KV cache is offloaded,…

Parseable Log Storage2022 · parseable.com · ▲79Over the past few months, we've been building Prism; a fast, developer-first observability UI that's deeply integrated with our open-source database, Parseable. Prism is designed for engineers who debug distributed systems, sometimes at odd hours, and need answers right now, without having to deal with five different tools. Backstory: We spoke to dozens of observability practitioners in large enterprises. Across the board, we heard two things: (1)The RoI on observability tools is hard to justify. (2)OSS leads to tool sprawl, metrics in Grafana, logs in ELK, traces… somewhere. We wanted a…

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

I went down the rabbit hole on a side project and ended up building this: Strange Attractors(https://blog.shashanktomar.com/posts/strange-attractors). It’s built with three.js. Working on it reminded me of the little "maths for fun" exercises I used to do while learning programming in early days. Just trying things out, getting fascinated and geeky, and being surprised by the results. I spent way too much time on this, but it was extreme fun. My favorite part: someone pointed me to the Simone Attractor on Threads. It is a 2D attractor and I asked GPT to extrapolate it to…

Autism Simulator▲779Hey all, I built this. It’s not trying to capture every autistic experience (that’d be impossible). It’s based on my own lived experience as well as that of friends on the spectrum. I'm trying to give people a feel for what masking, decision fatigue, and burnout can look like day-to-day. That’s hard to explain in words, but easier to show through choices and stats. I'm not trying to "define autism". I’ve gotten good feedback here about resilience, meds, and difficulty tuning. I’ll keep tweaking it. If even a few people walk away thinking, "ah, maybe that’s why my coworker struggles in those…
