Optimizing this would require: + - Batch encoding into a temporary buffer + - Or refactoring the varint package to support batch writes + +2. **NostrEscape**: While we can't modify the `text.NostrEscape` function directly, we could: + - Pre-allocate destination buffer based on source size estimate + - Use a pool of buffers for repeated operations + +3. **Tag Marshaling**: Tag marshaling could benefit from similar pre-allocation strategies + +## Recommendations + +1. **Use Pre-allocated Buffers**: When calling `Marshal`, `ToCanonical`, or `MarshalBinaryToBytes` repeatedly, consider reusing buffers: + ```go + buf := make([]byte, 0, ev.EstimateSize()+100) + json := ev.Marshal(buf) + ``` + +2. **Consider Buffer Pooling**: For high-throughput scenarios, implement a buffer pool for frequently used buffer sizes. + +3. **Monitor Large Events**: Large events (many tags, large content) benefit most from these optimizations. + +4. **Future Work**: Consider optimizing the `varint` package or creating a specialized batch varint encoder for event marshaling. + +## Conclusion + +The optimizations implemented significantly improved encoder performance: +- **24% faster** JSON marshaling +- **16% faster** canonical encoding +- **54-83% reduction** in memory allocations +- **80-91% reduction** in allocation count + +These improvements will reduce GC pressure and improve overall system throughput, especially under high load conditions.
