hello there, as I understood tor spends most of its cpu time within openssl library aes crypto. Which result of "openssl speed aes" applies to tor? Is it aes-128 cbc 16 bytes? In this case my old Prestonia P4 Netburst Xeon box's throughput is supposed to be roughly about 40 MBit/s as middleman. Correct?
type 16 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes aes-128 cbc 84098.99k 119729.69k 138053.97k 142741.16k 144386.04k aes-192 cbc 75035.35k 104143.72k 115681.81k 120099.84k 120949.42k aes-256 cbc 69559.47k 92221.78k 102006.05k 105361.75k 100274.74k Strange to say that my desktop Core2 Duo E8400 @home performs only 33% better in openssl aes crypto than one of the old P4 Netburst Xeon cores from my tor node. For the sake of better performance I'm thinking about replacing my tor node's hardware. Olaf
