How long do the self-tests take?
Ouch. If you must enable FIPS mode you don't have many options. Find
some other faster product, if there is any; use a validated hardware
device; hack and validate a stripped down derivative of the OpenSSL FIPS
Object Module. Where FIPS validation is mandated operations
considerations take second place.
