When Python Isn’t Fast Enough: Building a Token-Aware RAG Chunker in Rust

A developer built a token-aware RAG chunker in Rust after finding that naive character-count splitting corrupts embeddings and Python hits a parallelism ceiling. The Rust extension improves performance for AI applications.

How naive character-count splitting silently corrupts your embeddings, why Python hits a parallelism ceiling, and how a Rust extension… Continue reading on Towards AI »
