JohnOnchain on Nostr: Good question #[1]

Good question
GM

This morning, I have an idea for Nostr Proxy.
Is it required for the proxy to validate schnorr signatures for each events?

Because stored events in relays are already validated and client validate events too when getting them.
So... is it required for the proxy to validate them?

Schnorr signature validation is really CPU intensive. It validates ~5000 events/min when opening 7 global feeds.
