Look at the Rabin and RW tests in validate2.cpp (only Crypto++ version
5.1). For these algorithms, the size of the signature from which one
can recover a message is
min { m + 2h + 16 , k } bits
where m = message bits, h = hash bits, and k = key size in bits. So if
you want very small signatures, you need to use small keys and small
hash functions.
