Yep, was wondering why you didn't go down that path in the first place. Seems way safer.
It's because the most familiar thing to me that uses a NIF was Exqlite, so that was my starting point.
Using Rust and Rustler turned out to be way easier and it also now works across Elixir versions 1.14 to 1.18.
Great outcome :)
