Oh, that's a good point. I don't know if that means that the crypto
code won't use 64-bit optimizations though.
The Crypto++ benchmarks posted by its author, Wei Dai, are:
http://cryptopp.com/benchmarks.html
All measurements are CPU cycles per byte hashed.
Intel Core 2 1.83 GHz, 32-bit mode:
SHA-256: 22
Tiger: 8
Pentium 4 (Northwood)
SHA-256: 41
Tiger: 16
Opteron 2.4 GHz:
SHA-256: 21
Tiger: 7
Okay, and I've just run the Crypto++ self-benchmark script on one of
our servers (deharo2 -- Pentium 4 3.0 GHz):
SHA-256: 45
Tiger: 15
And on my workstation (Athlon64 2.4 GHz):
SHA-256: 22
Tiger: 7
