The previous way of sending from the thread pool suffered from stale diagnostics due to being canceled before we could clear the old ones. The key change is moving to sending diagnostics from the main loop thread, but doing all the hard work in the thread pool. This should provide the best of both worlds, with little to no of the downsides. This should hopefully fix a lot of issues, but we'll need testing in each individual issue to be sure.
Rust Analyzer is an experimental modular compiler frontend for the Rust language. It is a part of a larger rls-2.0 effort to create excellent IDE support for Rust. If you want to get involved, check the rls-2.0 working group:

Language Server Quick Start
Rust Analyzer is a work-in-progress, so you'll have to build it from source, and you might encounter critical bugs. That said, it is complete enough to provide a useful IDE experience and some people use it as a daily driver.
To build rust-analyzer, you need:
- latest stable rust for language server itself
- latest stable npm and VS Code for VS Code extension
To quickly install rust-analyzer with VS Code extension with standard setup
(code and cargo in $PATH, etc), use this:
# clone the repo
$ git clone https://github.com/rust-analyzer/rust-analyzer && cd rust-analyzer
# install both the language server and VS Code extension
$ cargo xtask install
# alternatively, install only the server. Binary name is `ra_lsp_server`.
$ cargo xtask install --server
For non-standard setup of VS Code and other editors, or if the language server cannot start, see ./docs/user.
Documentation
If you want to contribute to rust-analyzer or just curious about how things work under the hood, check the ./docs/dev folder.
If you want to use rust-analyzer's language server with your editor of choice, check ./docs/user folder. It also contains some tips & tricks to help you be more productive when using rust-analyzer.
