For some use-cases, Xor filters are supposed to be faster and smaller than Bloom and Cuckoo filters.
Recently, support for strings was added to the xorfilter Rust crate:
https://github.com/bnclabs/xorfilter/blob/master/tests/xorfilter.rs#L56
We should test that to see if they make our wasm binary smaller.

If someone wants to give this a shot, please write a short comment here.
I'd be happy to provide mentoring if needed.

Oh sweet. Hearing that from the author of XorFilters is very motivating. I'll put that on the shortlist for the next round of tests I'll do. Thanks for feedback!
(Big fan of your work here btw.)
