Claude one shotted building me a ruint in zig by just using ruint and a C++ version by @chfast as reference tests/implementation while I slept

@chfast I'm (friendly) competing to build a faster EVM than EVMOne and I think you would enjoy chatting with me about it sometime

Zig native math is >10x slower than the rust u256 package

Measuring how fast every opcode gets executed in 2 evms

Unpopular opinion: All products overoptimize for not having downtime because it's the easiest metric to measure

Hear me out. Specialized hardware that only runs V8 JavaScript

Extreme perf optimization is absurdly fun to do. It's not as simple as just looking at time complexity and gets you extremely intimate with how a compiler and CPU works
