That’s cool, but what would it buy us to switch from one C library to
another? Is Gumbo better than Hubbub?
Well, it has tested on over 2.5 billion pages from Google's index.
That is not enough of a reason for us to spend a lot of engineering
effort moving from one C parser to another. The point of Servo's HTML
parser is to be *fast* and *safe*. Gumbo is neither.
"Written by Google" is not a criterion that should guide our engineering
decisions.
