I've been rewriting a lot of my stuff in Rust to save memory.

Rust is high-level enough to still be fun for me (tokio gives me most of the concurrency goodies I like), but the memory usage is often like 1/10th or less compared to what I would write in Clojure.

Even though I love me some lisp, pretty much all my Clojure utilities are in Rust land now.
