# Encryption Performance Optimization Report
## Executive Summary
This report documents the profiling and optimization of encryption functions in the `next.orly.dev/pkg/crypto/encryption` package. The optimization focused on reducing memory allocations and CPU processing time for NIP-44 and NIP-4 encryption/decryption operations.
## Methodology
### Profiling Setup
1. Created comprehensive benchmark tests covering:
- NIP-44 encryption/decryption (small, medium, large messages)
- NIP-4 encryption/decryption
- Conversation key generation
- Round-trip operations
- Internal helper functions (HMAC, padding, key derivation)
2. Used Go's built-in profiling tools:
- CPU profiling (`-cpuprofile`)
- Memory profiling (`-memprofile`)
- Allocation tracking (`-benchmem`)
### Initial Findings
The profiling data revealed several key bottlenecks:
1. **NIP-44 Encrypt**: 27 allocations per operation, 1936 bytes allocated
2. **NIP-44 Decrypt**: 24 allocations per operation, 1776 bytes allocated
3. **Memory Allocations**: Primary hotspots identified:
- `crypto/hmac.New`: 1.80GB total allocations (29.64% of all allocations)
- `encrypt` function: 0.78GB allocations (12.86% of all allocations)
- `hkdf.Expand`: 1.15GB allocations (19.01% of all allocations)
- Base64 encoding/decoding allocations
4. **CPU Processing**: Primary hotspots:
- `getKeys`: 2.86s (27.26% of CPU time)
- `encrypt`: 1.74s (16.59% of CPU time)
- `sha256Hmac`: 1.67s (15.92% of CPU time)
- `sha256.block`: 1.71s (16.30% of CPU time)
## Optimizations Implemented
### 1. NIP-44 Encrypt Optimization
**Problem**: Multiple allocations from `append` operations and buffer growth.
**Solution**:
- Pre-allocate ciphertext buffer with exact size instead of using `append`
- Use `copy` instead of `append` for better performance and fewer allocations
**Code Changes** (`nip44.go`):
```go
// Pre-allocate with exact size to avoid reallocation
ctLen := 1 + 32 + len(cipher) + 32
ct := make([]byte, ctLen)
ct[0] = version
copy(ct[1:], o.nonce)
copy(ct[33:], cipher)
copy(ct[33+len(cipher):], mac)
cipherString = make([]byte, base64.StdEncoding.EncodedLen(ctLen))
base64.StdEncoding.Encode(cipherString, ct)
```
**Results**:
- **Before**: 3217 ns/op, 1936 B/op, 27 allocs/op
- **After**: 3147 ns/op, 1936 B/op, 27 allocs/op
- **Improvement**: 2% faster, allocation count unchanged (minor improvement)
### 2. NIP-44 Decrypt Optimization
**Problem**: String conversion overhead from `base64.StdEncoding.DecodeString(string(b64ciphertextWrapped))` and inefficient buffer allocation.
**Solution**:
- Use `base64.StdEncoding.Decode` directly with byte slices to avoid string conversion
- Pre-allocate decoded buffer and slice to actual decoded length
- This eliminates the string allocation and copy overhead
**Code Changes** (`nip44.go`):
```go
// Pre-allocate decoded buffer to avoid string conversion overhead
decodedLen := base64.StdEncoding.DecodedLen(len(b64ciphertextWrapped))
decoded := make([]byte, decodedLen)
var n int
if n, err = base64.StdEncoding.Decode(decoded, b64ciphertextWrapped); chk.E(err) {
return
}
decoded = decoded[:n]
```
**Results**:
- **Before**: 2530 ns/op, 1776 B/op, 24 allocs/op
- **After**: 2446 ns/op, 1600 B/op, 23 allocs/op
- **Improvement**: 3% faster, 10% less memory, 4% fewer allocations
- **Large messages**: 19028 ns/op → 17109 ns/op (10% faster), 17248 B → 11104 B (36% less memory)
### 3. NIP-4 Decrypt Optimization
**Problem**: IV buffer allocation issue where decoded buffer was larger than needed, causing CBC decrypter to fail.
**Solution**:
- Properly slice decoded buffers to actual decoded length
- Add validation for IV length (must be 16 bytes)
- Use `base64.StdEncoding.Decode` directly instead of `DecodeString`
**Code Changes** (`nip4.go`):
```go
ciphertextBuf := make([]byte, base64.StdEncoding.EncodedLen(len(parts[0])))
var ciphertextLen int
if ciphertextLen, err = base64.StdEncoding.Decode(ciphertextBuf, parts[0]); chk.E(err) {
err = errorf.E("error decoding ciphertext from base64: %w", err)
return
}
ciphertext := ciphertextBuf[:ciphertextLen]
ivBuf := make([]byte, base64.StdEncoding.EncodedLen(len(parts[1])))
var ivLen int
if ivLen, err = base64.StdEncoding.Decode(ivBuf, parts[1]); chk.E(err) {
err = errorf.E("error decoding iv from base64: %w", err)
return
}
iv := ivBuf[:ivLen]
if len(iv) != 16 {
err = errorf.E("invalid IV length: %d, expected 16", len(iv))
return
}
```
**Results**:
- Fixed critical bug where IV buffer was incorrect size
- Reduced allocations by properly sizing buffers
- Added validation for IV length

## Key Insights
### Allocation Reduction
The most significant improvement came from optimizing base64 decoding:
- **Decrypt**: Reduced from 24 to 23 allocations (4% reduction)
- **Decrypt Large**: Reduced from 17248 to 11104 bytes (36% reduction)
- Eliminated string conversion overhead in `Decrypt` function
### String Conversion Elimination
Replacing `base64.StdEncoding.DecodeString(string(b64ciphertextWrapped))` with direct `Decode` on byte slices:
- Eliminates string allocation and copy
- Reduces memory pressure
- Improves cache locality
### Buffer Pre-allocation
Pre-allocating buffers with exact sizes:
- Prevents multiple slice growth operations
- Reduces memory fragmentation
- Improves cache locality
### Remaining Optimization Opportunities
1. **HMAC Creation**: `crypto/hmac.New` creates a new hash.Hash each time (1.80GB allocations). This is necessary for thread safety, but could potentially be optimized with:
- A sync.Pool for HMAC instances (requires careful reset handling)
- Or pre-allocating HMAC hash state
2. **HKDF Operations**: `hkdf.Expand` allocations (1.15GB) come from the underlying crypto library. These are harder to optimize without changing the library.
3. **ChaCha20 Cipher Creation**: Each encryption creates a new cipher instance. This is necessary for thread safety but could potentially be pooled.
4. **Base64 Encoding**: While we optimized decoding, encoding still allocates. However, encoding is already quite efficient.
## Recommendations
1. **Use Direct Base64 Decode**: Always use `base64.StdEncoding.Decode` with byte slices instead of `DecodeString` when possible.
2. **Pre-allocate Buffers**: When possible, pre-allocate buffers with exact sizes using `make([]byte, size)` instead of `append`.
3. **Consider HMAC Pooling**: For high-throughput scenarios, consider implementing a sync.Pool for HMAC instances, being careful to properly reset them.
4. **Monitor Large Messages**: Large message decryption benefits most from these optimizations (36% memory reduction).
## Conclusion
The optimizations implemented improved decryption performance:
- **3-10% faster** decryption depending on message size
- **10-36% reduction** in memory allocations
- **4% reduction** in allocation count
- **Fixed critical bug** in NIP-4 decryption
These improvements will reduce GC pressure and improve overall system throughput, especially under high load conditions with many encryption/decryption operations. The optimizations maintain backward compatibility and require no changes to calling code.
