Bun boosts hex buffer parsing speed by 4.8x

Continuous optimizations to core primitives demonstrate Bun's commitment to wringing out every drop of performance from JavaScript operations.

• –A 4.8x speedup in hex parsing will meaningfully impact cryptographic operations, database drivers, and networking workloads.
• –By optimizing Node.js-compatible APIs like Buffer, Bun reduces the friction for teams looking to migrate for performance gains.
• –This kind of low-level string-to-buffer optimization is crucial for high-throughput backend services.
