| The 'times' in this directory are not all for the most recent version of |
| the library and it should be noted that on some CPUs (specifically sparc |
| and Alpha), the locations of files in the application after linking can |
| make upto a %10 speed difference when running benchmarks on things like |
| cbc mode DES. To put it mildly this can be very anoying. |
| About the only way to get around this would be to compile the library as one |
| object file, or to 'include' the source files in a specific order. |
| The best way to get an idea of the 'raw' DES speed is to build the |
| 'speed' program in crypto/des. |
