Yes, I understand the goal of OPENSSL_cleanse() ... and I understand the potential implications of changing it to bring up performance on 0.9.6m.
My concern is that modifying OPENSSL_cleanse() does not help performance on 0.9.7m or 0.9.8j ... which means, the performance hit is coming from somewhere else ... So, if anyone has any ideas ( including security implications ) on how I can patch the code to improve sha1 performance on a recent build of 0.9.8 for Solaris 8 running on Sparc, I would appreciate it. Of course, if anything permanent could be done before 0.9.9 is release, that would be great as well ... since I would love to take advantage of the new RSA speed when it is released. -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/poor-sha1-performance-on-Solaris-8-tp21485121p21501816.html Sent from the OpenSSL - Dev mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List openssl-dev@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
