More fine-tuning.

Please look at the diffs.

Please note, that I have not been able to find any energy consumption numbers to go along with the cycles for the EdDSA signing and verifying.  I do not believe it is trivial; not from conversations I have had.  Also I am not sure you can simply convert cycles to wall time.  This was my experience when working on ZWave. For whatever reason, wall time was higher than simple cycle counting predicted.

Happy reading!  Or at least diffs.  Maybe diff -21 with -24...

Abstract:
    This document specifies the Host Identity Protocol Diet EXchange (HIP
    DEX), a variant of the Host Identity Protocol Version 2 (HIPv2) and
    specifically developed for use on low end processors.  The HIP DEX
    protocol design aims at reducing the overhead of the employed
    cryptographic primitives by omitting public-key signatures and
    cryptographic hash functions.

    The HIP DEX protocol is primarily designed for computation or memory-
    constrained sensor/actuator devices.  Like HIPv2, it is expected to
    be used together with a suitable security protocol such as the
    Encapsulated Security Payload (ESP) for the protection of upper layer
    protocol data.  Unlike HIPv2, HIP DEX does not support Forward
    Secrecy (FS), and MUST only be used on devices where FS is
    prohibitively expensive.  In addition, HIP DEX can also be used as a
    keying mechanism for security primitives at the MAC layer, e.g., for
    IEEE 802.15.4 networks.
