They claim Camellia (love that name; someone should do a
'Monica' cipher) takes 10K gates. This
is about twice what DES (using half the block size) requires. No doubt
they have kept the small S boxes and used simple key schedule typical of
hardware-optimized ciphers like DES. Will
be interesting to see how they retained security in the face
of such frugality.
