ZK Benchmark

This is a small tool that run Circom and Noir on a set of examples from the tests folder.

Getting started

Prerequisites

  1. Install wget (macOS with Homebrew: brew install wget)
  2. Install b2sum (macOS with Homebrew: brew install blake2)
  3. Install Yarn
  4. Install Rust
  5. Install Nargo
  6. Install Circom

Benchmarking

  1. git clone https://github.com/noir-lang/zk_bench.git
  2. cd zk_bench
  3. yarn
  4. bash download_ptau.sh
  5. cargo run

It then benchmarks tests in the ./tests/ directory. Note that some of the tests might take minutes to run.

Tests

Tests are using Circom lib and Noir stdlib

  • eddsa: eddsa signature verification.
  • gates: AND the inputs together
  • mimc: mimc hash of the input
  • pedersen: pedersen hash of the input
  • poseidon: poseidon hash of the input
  • sha256: sha256 hash of the input
