Hi Chris,
If you want the full performance improvements for secp192k1 or
secp256k1, from latest code (i.e. beta.1), please use
Crypto.EC.CustomNamedCurves.GetByName("secp***k1")
to get your curve/parameters (secp160k1 and secp224k1 may be implemented
in due course - presently there's also P-192/P-256/P-521 and their
secp***r1 equivalents).
It is little exaggeration, if any, to say that these "custom" curves are
2 orders of magnitude (100x) faster than what was in 1.7.
Regards,
Pete Dettman

Also, thank you for working on the scep***k1 curve improvements. I
can’t wait to try them out!
