I know this was directed at the other guy, but I'm using "software-only" OpenSSL. Is there some reason to use cryptodev instead? Is there some Atom hardware that the kernel could take advantage of that a userland program or library (the OpenSSL library in particular) can't? I'm also contemplating using the GPU for some crypto operations, though I'm not sure we've got large enough chunks to make it worthwhile (or that the GPU is sufficiently faster than the CPU for RC4-MD5). cjs -- Curt Sampson <c...@cynic.net> +81 90 7737 2974 http://www.starling-software.com/ I have always wished for my computer to be as easy to use as my telephone; my wish has come true because I can no longer figure out how to use my telephone. --Bjarne Stroustrup ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
