Hello, I'm new to Crypto++ and wanted to test RSA encryption. I compiled the "cryptest" application on a windows system with C++Builder 2010 and created an 8192-bit length key (only for test purposes - I will not use it). On a Quad Core CPU it took me just 5 mins. Isn't it a bit too short? I thought it will compute for several hours. Is the key weaker than an equivalent one created for example with gnupg? (i know, that gnupg can't create rsa keys larger than 4096)
