Yeah, I agree, but I'm only using RSA to bootstrap a secure connection
and to do a DH to generate a shared session key. Basically, I have only
around four messages going back and forth and I think the overhead by
just doing multiple RSA encryptions is negligible (since this is not
real-time communication but instead during initialization).
