you may find that the cavium platform is as fast as your CPU - or that the PCI bandwidth is being exhausted etc - however, what you REALLY should be doing is checking your processor load when testing. after all, doing 250m 1024bit keys/s with 1% CPU laod is far far better for a server than 255m 1024bit keys/s with 68% CPU load :-) alan ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org User Support Mailing List openssl-users@openssl.org Automated List Manager [EMAIL PROTECTED]
