Right. Although the size of the basic elements can be
estimated fairly well: the size of KeyInfo is determined
2.5 hours. And the file size ended up (just the private key, in PEM
format) 12603 bytes.

Thank you. I was thinking the same. I thought a 5K buffer should be
enough to store a 4K bit key in PEM format.
I am curious to know how long it took for you to generate 16Kbit key.

There is no upper limit on the size of an x.509 certificate file in
DER. PEM takes DER and increases its size by 4/3. So no, there is no
upper limit on the size of a PEM format certificate.
Your private key is 4096 bits, or 512 bytes. OpenSSL stores private
keys with their public counterparts (
HI All
Is there be an upper limit on the size of a x509 certificate file in
PEM format? Suppose that I am using 4096 bit key.
Is there a way to calculate such length.
Similarly is there an upper limit on the size of PEM format private
key file? I am using 4096bit key.
Thank you
