Just FYI, I just sic'ed an UltraSparc 2 running Solaris (as [EMAIL PROTECTED]) on this. Here's the output of -m: rc5-56-client: Performance testing with 1000000 crypts rc5-56-client: Complete in 6.819 seconds. (146650.34 keys/sec) I hope this helps somewhat...but could you explain the "-socks5" part to me? I'm also going to try to get about 2 dozen ancient old Sparc IPC's and Sparc 1's on the job. They don't do much these days anyway. -- "I must despise the world which does not know that | G.
