According to Wu Shuo, Daniel Lubarov, a developer from the Polygon Zero team, tweeted that the performance of their zero-knowledge proof system Plonky3 has made significant breakthroughs, processing over 2 million Poseidon2 hash operations per second. This advancement is mainly attributed to memory optimizations, including avoiding data copying, skipping zeroing operations, and merging FFT steps. Ethereum founder Vitalik Buterin acknowledged this, noting that this processing speed (equivalent to 62 MB of Merkle operations per second) is sufficient to re-hash Ethereum's maximum theoretical consensus state within a single time slot.
