looks like entropy key is 32 kbit/s, [0] via padlock xstore 1-2Mbps to 100+Mbps (per bios&mode) [1] intel ??? (slower than xstore) [2] 0. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Comparison_of_hardware_random_number_generators 1. http://www.cryptography.com/public/pdf/VIA_rngsum.pdf 2. http://www.cryptography.com/public/pdf/IntelRNG.pdf _______________________________________________ cryptography mailing list [email protected] http://lists.randombit.net/mailman/listinfo/cryptography
