Performance tuning in progress

AEGIS was about hardening.

The next phase is speed.

Current benchmark snapshot from ForgeZero:

BenchmarkHashFile100MB-8
14    81798332 ns/op    1325 B/op    15 allocs/op

Recent optimization work focuses on:

• reducing allocations in critical paths
• tightening hashing throughput
• improving I/O efficiency
• keeping security guarantees intact
• preserving deterministic behavior across platforms

Everything remains green:

go test ./...
go test -race ./...

Performance matters.

Security matters too.

The goal is both.

Next update coming soon.
