With a gnuk token and an ed25519 key it will even be much faster than
with a RSA
Hello together,
here's an interesting observation on ssh auth speed
when using different key sizes on the openpgp smartcard:
RSA 2048 bit key: 0.7s
RSA 4096 bit key: 3.1s
Card used is an openpgp smartcard V3.3
with gnupg 2.2.4. The ssh key is accessed via gpg-agent.
We found this while
