  • Hardware dispatch built-in across x86, Arm, RISC-V, WASM with portable fallbacks
  • Concrete benchmark evidence: 3,958 wins out of 6,525 comparisons
Weaknesses
  • Crypto library space is crowded with ring, rustls, openssl bindings
  • New crate means less battle-testing than established alternatives
