Huh? What memory will it eat up exactly?

If those messages bother you and you want them suppressed, compile with -DPURIFY. If you don't care and want maximum security, don't specify -DPURIFY. > Thanks, > msp DS ______________________________________________________________________ OpenSSL Project http://www.openssl.org Development Mailing List openssl-dev@openssl.org Automated List Manager majord...@openssl.org
