Thanks for your reply; alternatively, I could use an Alix board for this task (faster CPU than WRAP, 500MHz vs. 233MHz and newer core design). However, the used AMD Geode LX CPU also features a 'Crypto Unit', but from AMD's Data Book on this CPU [0] I don't get the idea whether it also accellerates RSA operations or just AES stuff. Any hint appreciated, Timo [0] -- http://www.amd.com/files/connectivitysolutions/geode/geode_lx/33234F_LX_databook.pdf iD8DBQFG/8WFUY3eBSqOgOMRCincAKCszsO7E463FY/kOJthhJOqU/niYQCgmB6D z74Nbxit2IVw0xYZUBpK8m8= =VnZq -----END PGP SIGNATURE-----
