Choosing the Right Service for Your ZK Circuit
Performance Review vs. Standard Security Audit
While both services are critical, they target different stages and objectives. A standard audit focuses on security and correctness, while a performance review optimizes for gas efficiency, proving time, and scalability.
| Focus Area | Standard Security Audit | ZK Circuit Performance Review |
|---|---|---|
Primary Objective | Identify security vulnerabilities and logic flaws | Optimize for gas cost, proving speed, and circuit size |
Key Deliverable | Security report with severity ratings (Critical, High, etc.) | Performance report with benchmark comparisons and optimization roadmap |
Core Analysis | Formal verification, symbolic execution, manual review | Constraint analysis, gate count profiling, memory/stack optimization |
Typical Cost | $15K - $50K+ (scope-dependent) | $25K - $75K+ (complexity-dependent) |
Ideal Timing | Pre-production, before mainnet deployment | Post-audit, when scaling or reducing user costs is critical |
Outcome Metric | Security score & resolved vulnerabilities | Gas reduction (e.g., 30-70%), faster proof generation |
Team Expertise | General smart contract & cryptographic auditors | Specialized ZK engineers (Plonk, Halo2, Circom) |
Common Tools | Slither, MythX, manual review | Profilers (e.g., SnarkJS), custom benchmarking suites, PLONKish analyzers |
