Ah, now I think I figured it out: x/s means x operations per second. (Initially, I thought x was the time it took to perform an operation, and /s was some time measured in one or other fraction of a second.)

Thanks!

P.S.:Just to state my preferences: I am actually very much for the public-key cryptography as the means of solving IdM problems. We have on the record the whole nation (Estonia) having moved to PKI, where people sign their votes with their private keys. That convinces me that it sort of scales, although I know that there are opinions.

And so my question here is: What was the reason for choosing a private key short here?
I don't understand your point. I measured the number of sign/verify operations per second and the results show verification (the public key operation) is significantly faster then signing.
