Thank you for all the useful input, and sorry about my delay in response.
The problem i noticed was some of the cavium related IOCTLs are failing in
my setup, and it seemlessly falls back to the default algorithms.
By default, only RSA is offloaded, and you are right DSA is not offloaded to
Hello,
I am trying to compare the performance benefits in using hardware
accelerator, and am experimenting the CAVIUM SSL card.
I am comparing the results between 'speed' and 'speed -engine cavium',
and i do not see any difference in numbers.
I do see the message 'cavium engine set', but

But to my surprise, i am getting the same performance numbers, for

Are you sure the engine offloads

you may find that the cavium platform is as fast as your CPU - or that the
PCI bandwidth is being exhausted etc - however, what you REALLY should be
doing is checking your processor load when testing. after all, doing
250m 1024bit keys/s with 1% CPU laod is far far better for a server
than 255m
Thank you all for your comments, but i still do not have the issue resolved.
