I remember the pgp 2 code having a limitation to 16k RSA keys due to special integer precision libs (the default pgp 2 doesn't create keys larger than 2048 bits but hacked versions exist that ganerate 16k keys). Is there such a limitation in gpg, or can I happily use a 128k RSA or El Gamal key with no other problems than them being very slow? -- ir. J.C.A.
