Score: 6.3/10 (Innovation: 5, Technical: 7, Documentation: 7, Utility: 6)

Impatience is a Rust library for measuring event-to-event latency across networked peers using automatic clock synchronization, built on a windowed-minimum one-way delay algorithm ported from a well-known C++ library. It offers multiple abstraction levels from high-level profiling to raw sync primitives, supports no_std, and includes CLI tools for real-world testing, making it interesting for latency-sensitive distributed applications.
