Hi maintainer, I'd like to take on this issue.

As a fullstack Web3 developer and security auditor, gas optimization and benchmarking are a core part of my workflow. I'll set up hardhat-gas-reporter, establish baseline snapshots for all five functions, and configure regression detection for CI. Ready to start once assigned.
