I can.  I mentioned this on the -team mailing list.  The idea is that an 
application can register callbacks so that CPU-intensive intructions, RSA and 
ECC ops for now, can get spun off into a separate thread.  The top-level 
SSL_accept/connect return a new error code "not ready yet" and then can poll or 
wait for the background processor to tell the main thread it's ready, etc.

Again referring to internal knowledge, this might be moot.  But it might be a 
quick win for some of downstream distro's ...
