Managed to beat the Rust implementation with a Zig implementation ⚡️
Initially it was slower, but, moving to use the same libsec256k1 C implementation for operations on SECP256k1 curve, now the Zig version is slightly faster.
113 micro seconds for the End to End BDHKE!

quoting note1xjw…sdxjMe today: write BDHKE scheme in Zig (https://github.com/AbdelStark/coconut).
Benchmark it: Oh wow it's super fast, 1 millisecond for the end to end scheme.
Find the Rust implementation (https://github.com/ngutech21/moksha) and benchmark it: it's about 10 times faster than my Zig implementation 😭
Gg Moksha folks! 🦀 is blazingly fast damn.
I suspect there might be a gap in terms of performance between the Secp256k1 implementation of the Zig std lib and the C implementation (the secp256k1 crate being a Rust wrapper library for Pieter Wuille's libsecp256k1 in C).
