Is it worth it using Rust+Axum for backend instead of Node.js? In which situations would you do so? (lemmy.opensupply.space)

In practical perspectives, I'm mostly concerned about computer resources usage; I have computer resources constraints. So using Rust would benefit on that. But it is for a Web application backend. So, is it worth it having to learn Rust + Tokio + Axum, ... in this specific situation? Also, that this is mostly for initially prototyping an application. Also considering if I add developers in the future, they would most likely not be familiar with Rust, but with more popular frameworks such as Node.
