Challenges I ran into

During the development of Pramaan, we encountered a significant challenge related to the integration of zero-knowledge proofs with blockchain technology. The bug we faced was related to the efficiency and scalability of the system. The computational overhead involved in generating and verifying proofs was higher than anticipated, leading to performance issues.

To overcome this hurdle, we implemented several optimization techniques. First, we conducted an in-depth analysis of the codebase to identify any redundant or computationally expensive operations. We optimized the algorithms and data structures to minimize the computational burden without compromising security.

Additionally, we leveraged parallel processing and distributed computing techniques to distribute the workload across multiple nodes. This significantly improved the system's performance and scalability, allowing us to handle a larger number of authentication requests efficiently.

We also conducted extensive testing and benchmarking to ensure that the system met our performance and security standards. Rigorous stress testing and simulations were performed to identify any potential bottlenecks and address them proactively.

By combining optimization strategies, parallel processing, and meticulous testing, we successfully overcame the bug and hurdle, achieving a highly efficient and scalable authentication system in Pramaan. The experience reinforced the importance of continuous testing, optimization, and adaptability in the face of unforeseen challenges during the development process.
