The current draft says explicitly:

  In considering these use cases and requirements, the Working
  Group's attention is in particular called to the performance and
  memory efficiency of implementations.

The language on canonicalization is phrased to open the door toward
smaller and more efficient algorithms.

It would be helpful if you could propose concrete edits that would
help to address your concerns.
