Performance comparison to Zod for piped string

Hello! I'm looking to implement a validator in a pretty performance critical area - so have been comparing some of the data contracts used, and in each test thrown together, ArkType is easily faster.... apart from one where a string is piped through a couple of stages The Zod equivilant is const zodTest = z.string().trim().toLowerCase().email().startsWith("info"); And for ArkType I've got const arkTest = type("string.trim |> string.lower |> string.email & /^info/"); And running the tests of zodTest.parse(" [email protected]") arkTest(" [email protected]") In this scenario, ArkType is about 10x slower. It's still very quick, so there's no concerns about anything; I'm just wondering if I'm missing a trick when writing the type that'd speed things up? Thanks!
