1/ At @0xLita, we've built an automated benchmarking system that rigorously tracks Valida zkVM's execution time, memory efficiency, and scaling behavior. Our custom Nim-based analyzer (@Vindaar🥷) processes CI runs to detect performance regressions or improvements. By running the benchmark CI for every pull request and every release version of Valida, we can track how performance changes over time, without having to rely on sporadic benchmark runs. It makes it so that we can directly pinpoint (and hopefully avoid) performance regressions when working on new features for example. Or vice versa to quantify the kind of performance improvements a change in the code yields. For developers building with Valida, this represents a new standard in performance transparency.
