Yes, the primary focus is memory efficiency; performance improvement is a side effect of that. From my own benchmarks, I have found that to be the case. If you're validating thousands of objects per second or working with memory constraints, the difference becomes quite significant. Happy to share the full benchmark code if you'd like to run them yourself!

You should include this benchmark in your repo and README if you want to build trust.

I think anything that declares itself as a performance improvement over the competition ought to prove it!
