Currently there are two kinds of messages that are signed by the replica:
In both cases, the function
as_signed_bytes_without_domain_separatorcurrently produces a newly owned vec (a fresh serialization for 1. and a clone for 2.), which is then appended onto a different vector holding the domain prefix.Instead, this PR replaces
fn as_signed_bytes_without_domain_separator(&self) -> Vec<u8>withfn write_signed_bytes_without_domain_separator(&self, bytes: &mut Vec<u8>)which appends/serializes the message bytes directly into the buffer that already holds the domain separator. This saves one clone/allocation of the data to be signed/verified in both cases.Additionally we remove a few other unnecessary allocations.
