Hi Mike,

I had an offline conversation with Jian and, now, I agree on the point that 
bitmap will not optimize the API. I will work on changing back to switch..case.

Thanks,
Amol

Also, I don't have a definitive way of checking the optimization. I have only 
been checking size of the FVs. Can you suggest how to? Use of UefiTool does not 
help or at least, I don't know how to properly use it.

Thanks,
Amol

Mike,

If I remember correctly, the optimization will be left to the PPI/Protocol 
version of BaseCryptLib, which will be merged into edk2 code base from Mu 
project.

Regards,
Jian
