FWIW, I have an implementation of X448MLKEM1024, just no code point, to associate it with. Relative performance is not great, and (doing my best impersonation of David Benjamin) until there's a workable keyshare prediction specification, it would be very unlikey to get used. keygen encaps decaps keygens/s encaps/s decaps/s X25519MLKEM768 0.000053s 0.000070s 0.000056s 18821.2 14208.0 17876.4 X448MLKEM1024 0.000221s 0.000334s 0.000171s 4534.7 2995.0 5831.5 The numbers are from "openssl speed" which does not generate new keys for encap decap, measuring just the time to perform these with keys already on hand, but "encap" needs to generate an ephemeral ECDH keypair. which is why it is the slowest of the three. -- Viktor. _______________________________________________ TLS mailing list -- tls@ietf.org To unsubscribe send an email to tls-le...@ietf.org
