I did a back-of-an-envelope calculation recently which made it look
like they could just about hack RSA public key operations, and
presumably also ECDSA/ECDH, but would take way too long (c. 2 minutes)
to do RSA private key ops or DSA/DH. As you work up towards the bigger
Palms the figures get better, but still scary.
