you've missed one more number: > > Of those, 45 (1.03%) could not be connected to (did not receive a Server > > Hello/.../Server Hello Done reply) with the "Very Compatible" client hello so while TLS1.3 intolerance it is a bigger problem, it's a bigger problem by a factor of two or three (depending what sizes you consider problematic), not by an order of magnitude And given that the "best"[1] key share for post quantum crypto now is 1824 bytes in size, going above 2048 byte for client hello's on first connect is not unreasonable. That is *if* rlwe with those parameters turns out to be good enough and we won't need something even larger. 1 - https://www.imperialviolet.org/2015/12/24/rlwe.html -- Regards, Hubert Kario Senior Quality Engineer, QE BaseOS Security team Web: www.cz.redhat.com Red Hat Czech s.r.o., Purkyňova 99/71, 612 45, Brno, Czech Republic
