Smartphones don't have that much RAM, yet. They're only just approaching 1GB, but don't have all that much to spare to applications. But even 10MB will greatly complicate the attacker's life (certainly, if they wanted to use GPUs, and probably if they are using ASICs). _______________________________________________ cryptography mailing list [email protected] http://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/cryptography
