On device #1 no constraint for my purpose. On the smartcard, the tradeoff is between using EEPROM (plenty + slow + small life expectancy) for temp variables versus RAM (very little) ... but I do not think it is an issue eather in my case. Speed is what worries me most (crypto takes time). But so far so good. Regards, Philippe -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
