Hi there, I'm thinking about rewriting one my project from OpenSSL to GnuTLS. The project is a VPN, and as it basically needs only pretty good raw transfer speed, I began to concern about some rumors that my little search returned - those were mostly about the GnuTLS is 30-50% slower than OpenSSL. Most of those posts was around 3-5 years old, though, so I'm writing here to ask:
a] Is there really such performance gap? (I don't count recently-discussed TLS handshake problems, I need only raw crypting/transfer speeds.) b] Do we have some kind of real benchmark? like "encrypt 50 megs with RSA: x,y,z seconds for gnutls/openssl/nss/..." I'm sorry if bringing this topic up isn't needed and I only got confused by bad google results; but I would really like someone comment on this. Thanks Mirek Kratochvil PS. the application I'm planning to rewrite is here: http://exa.czweb.org/?view=cloudvpn _______________________________________________ Help-gnutls mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnutls
