Memory-Safe WebP Decoding
wpd is a Rust‑based WebP decoder that replaces most unsafe C code with safe Rust (only zerocopy unsafe) and optional hand‑written SIMD, delivering faster decoding than libwebp. Benchmarks show up to 3.2× speedup in multi‑threaded scenarios while matching libwebp’s feature set and adding extra capabilities.
