It should be noted that chacha20 has insanely comfortable security margin. With a more accurate estimate chacha8 has a security margin similar to that of AES, and chacha20 has 2.5 times more rounds, see if it's worth the cost.

Unfortunately almost no one can use ChaCha8 since the standards all call for ChaCha20.
