to say "well we shouldn't make it go any faster because it's the wrong tool" is ignoring just how common place they are used for these tasks.

Let me reiterate to make clear what my position is: "The patches are not going into the stock package without a review." Please do read comment 12. If you can put them the patches into a separate package (say in a HPC repository) in OBS on your own, it will be welcomed.

The main problems with high throughput tend to be either encryption cpu overhead or buffer sizes... there doesn't conceptually seem to be much of a problem with that tweaking those or adding specialized encryption modules.

Things always get complicated when you start fiddling with cryptography code. It has to be clear, that current functionality isn't crippled by introduced changes. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug.
