[PATCH] use ecdh/X25519 from openssl when possible (openssl-1.1.0+)
...;
Before:
0.3295s per call
After:
0.2183s per call
That is, 50% speedup; assuming ed25519 (added to openssl in 1.1.1) takes about same time as ecdh/x25519,
there are potential for total 200% speedup in KEX.
(2) rebased patch against git master; passes regression test;
I relied on presence of NID_X25519 for autodetection; probably it makes sense to check if is
actually working it autoconf; then again, maybe not (it won't work when cross-compiling anyway).
P.S. given amount of feedback I received so far, it seems everyone follows motto "it cannot be secure
if it is not slow".
