Probably the coolest thing about coding a matching engine is the fact that it's a process that runs fully in memory and has to stay up forever.
Can't afford memory leaks, CPU exhaustion, ...
Has to be as perfect as possible.
Current @bitfinex matching engine uptime is 300 days.

Credit where credit's due, that's impressive uptime. Checked your GitHub too, and it's updated near-daily. I could see you finding work pretty easily even after all this is over.
