Title: Unleashing the Beast: Optimizing x64 Assembly for Lightning-Fast Crypto Apps

Hey fellow devs, let's talk about the elephant in the room - optimization. I've been experimenting with x64 assembly for some crypto apps, and the results have been mind-blowing. Has anyone else dived into this rabbit hole, and what kind of performance gains have you seen?

"Just got done reading through this thread and I gotta say, optimizing x64 assembly for crypto apps sounds like a beast of a project. Anyone have experience with using inline assembly in C or Rust to squeeze out extra performance? Also, what's the best x64 assembly tutorial out there for beginners?"

"Yooo, I was following this thread and I gotta say, the ideas presented are super interesting. Has anyone tried implementing some of these optimizations in real-world crypto projects, like perhaps building a custom wallet or miner? That'd be dope to see some results"

"Whoa, this is some next-level stuff right here. Been experimenting with SSE3 instructions for some of my own crypto projects and seen insane speed boosts. Can't wait to hear about the x64 optimizations you've discovered."

"Nice to see a thread on low-level optimization . I've been experimenting with inline assembly for my Ethereum miner and saw some pretty sweet gains. Has anyone explored using AVX-512 or other newer instructions for crypto workloads?"

"Whoa, this thread is a beast of its own. Just a heads up, I've seen some of the x64 optimization techniques being used in projects like CryptoNightR, they're pretty wild. Definitely gonna give this a read and see how I can apply it to my own projects."
