As I'm preparing to open source a project, I am suddenly so self-conscious about my code hygiene. I've been the only one looking at this code, so it's been fine. But I definitely need to clean the stacks of clothes off the chair before we have company.

Ah, but it is nice to do this. This is *clean*. I should pick up the clothes off the chair for myself once in a while.

I have about 37k lines of functional code and about 26k lines of test and benchmark code. While I did some pretty excellent low-level work (IIDSSM), what the hell was I doing with error and config types? What a mess. But at least my proxy is high-performance. 🤦 Cue 2342 hours of refactoring.

And yes, I do have a little script I use to calculate this, mostly because I want to see codebase composition over time. It's not a real metric of quality, of course. `cargo xtask code-stats`
