I'm writing an ENGINE wrapper for our new hardware.
Currently, the hardware does not have a CRT version
of modexp. I see from the Atalla ENGINE that this
is not critical - one can simply ignore the component
primes p,q and just do a standard modexp.
Does anyone have any knowledge of the relative
speed of RSA decryption in hardware between
CRT modexp and non-CRT modexp? Or links to
papers describing actual working hardware
implementations with actual timing data?
Is there any way to find out what is the most-used
key-exchange algorithm? RSA? Any way to at
least estimate?
