Describe what you want implemented
Currently we use Poseidon to compute the hashes involved in the generation of the note keys (stealth address). As these operations always happen out of the circuit, replacing Poseidon by a more efficient hash function (not intended to be computed in-circuit) like Blake2b, would be a better solution.
