TurboSHAKE is a round-reduced version of SHAKE which is being standardized by CFRG.
It offers the same practical security as SHA3 and SHAKE. Its security builds up on the scrutiny that Keccak has received since its publication.
Unlike SHA3 (but not unlike SHAKE), the output can be of any size.
TurboSHAKE also offers higher performance - It is nearly twice as fast as SHAKE.
Why it matters: TurboSHAKE is the fastest secure hash function we'll have in Zig when compiling for the
baseline
CPU.Since we already had SHAKE, TurboSHAKE is a trivial addition, and it will immediately benefit from the further optimizations we'll do to Keccak.
