Per [3], I'm no longer asking for Poly1305, because I'm not currently  
needing to use a MAC.

Just to summarize that thread, I currently suspect that Poly1305 is a  
more efficient algorithm than VMAC on low-power 32-bit CPUs, but  
perhaps that is because the Crypto++ implementation of VMAC hasn't  
been optimized for that purpose .
