Might I point out that discussion is with respect to an 8k RSA SSH key for SSH authentication, not for email. A 2 second delay during the initialization of an SSH connection is not a problem. > And for sure I need to make sure a power socket is close to me if my > device is constantly crunching numbers. Find one with a better battery/more-efficient processor if these sorts of calculations would really be an issue, compared to the general radio use of the phone. _______________________________________________ Gnupg-users mailing list Gnupg-users@gnupg.org http://lists.gnupg.org/mailman/listinfo/gnupg-users
