\section{Introduction}

Cryptographic security has a cost. Every signature, every proof, every encrypted computation consumes CPU cycles, memory, bandwidth, and storage. The question is not ``which primitive is most secure?'' but ``which composition of primitives achieves the required security at acceptable cost?''

|
This paper measures the cost of every cryptographic primitive in the Lux network stack and explains the architectural decisions that follow from those measurements.
