Hi,

Looking at the performance figures for the X2 and X4 variant of AEGIS on AMD 
Zen 4 and Apple M1, I started thinking if adding parallelism at the algorithm 
level is the right solution. An alternative is to add parallelism at the 
protocol level similar to IPsec, something DTLS 1.3 and QUIC do not currently 
support. In QUIC and DTLS 1.3 you could for example add an extension to include 
the Connection ID in the derivation of traffic secrets (lets ignore key updates 
for now) and use several Connection IDs in parallel over a single connection.

Would 2 or 4 parallel AEGIS-128L have better performance than AEGIS-128X2 and 
AEGIS-128X4?

   authenticated encryption algorithms for integration into the TLS 1.3,
   DTLS 1.3, and QUIC protocols.
