Am I doing something wrong? Now I am forced to downgrade to libcurl/7.19.5.
Did you re-run the tests multiple times with each version to see that the timings were stable?
I can't find any noticable differences between 7.19.5 and 7.20.1 for curl_global_init() (lib/easy.c for example hasn't been changed since 7.19.5...). I suspect the entire difference you see is due to OpenSSL taking various amounts of time to get enough random data for the PRNG.
