semisafe

semisafe is a crate containing semi-safe utilities for performance-critical Rust code. Every function in this crate is safe in debug mode and unsafe in release mode. This is meant to provide an improved alternative to strictly-unsafe methods like get_unchecked.

• Only use these methods in places where the code should NEVER panic. Treat them as unchecked methods.
• You should have comprehensive automated tests around code when using these functions. Run them in debug mode to catch unexpected behavior. Distribute in release mode to get the performance benefits.
