I just picked up an Athlon64 3200+, which runs at a 2 GHz clock speed. Using the Red Hat for AMD64 beta and the version of OpenSSL that ships with that beta, I get 922 1024-bit RSA signs per second. This is a tad less RSA signatures per second than I have seen on an 800MHz Itanium using highly optimized assembler. That's rather poor performance on the Athlon64.
Are the figures that I am seeing typical for OpenSSL on the Athlon64? Has anybody here seen different figures using optimized code?

Was there ever a reply to this? If so, could someone forward it to me off-list, as I missed it :-( Thanks! -- Yours, J.A. Terranson sysadmin@mfn.org "Every living thing dies alone." Donnie Darko
