[GitHub] [incubator-milagro-crypto-rust] kirk-baird opened a new issue #24: Caching Decoded Objects

[GitBox <gi...@apache.org>]

kirk-baird opened a new issue #24:
URL: https://github.com/apache/incubator-milagro-crypto-rust/issues/24


   # What is the Issue
   
   Many results are converted from raw data (i.e. ints / bytes) many times. These results could be cached to reduce rework.
   
   These results can be cached as:
   * Big
   * DBig
   * FPx
   * ECPx
   
   Common items being decoded many times:
   * Elliptic Curve Generators
   * Field Modulus
   * Curve Order
   * Curve Equation Parameters (a, b)
   
   # What can be done
   
   These can be cached using `lazy_static` which will convert into the required rust types only when they are first called and then cached for future use.
   
   # Additional Comments
   
   It would also be good to change the existing use of `hex` to be stored as `Chunk`s instead.
