Category: Extension Modules Group: None >Status: Closed >Resolution: Accepted Priority: 5 Submitted By: Gregory P. Smith (greg) Assigned to: Nobody/Anonymous (nobody) Summary: md5 and sha1 modules should use openssl implementation Initial Comment: the MD5 and SHA-1 modules should use the OpenSSL library to perform the hashing when it is available (always these days; python ships with basic ssl socket support using openssl). OpenSSL includes and keeps up with highly optimized versions of the hash algorithms for various architectures. They should always perform the same or better than the python shamodule and md5module implementations. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- >Comment By: Gregory P.
