So should we expect a blake3 switch sometime in the future? It seems to be a refinement of blake2 to make it more amenable to optimization while keeping most (all?) its qualities. Being well suited for optimization across architectures would also make it ideal for the kernel and it seems the reference implementation has already done a lot of the heavy lifting.


I doubt it, but who knows?
