* Merged the _rsa.c and _dsa.c files into a single accelerator
module, _fastmath.c.
- * Added fast isPrime() function to _fastmath, cutting the time to
- generate a 1024-bit prime by a factor of 10. (Contributed by
- Joris Bontje.)
+ * Speed improvements: Added fast isPrime() function to _fastmath,
+ cutting the time to generate a 1024-bit prime by a factor of 10.
+ Optimized the C version of RSA decryption to use a longer series
+ of operations that's roughly 3x faster than a single
+ exponentiation. (Contributed by Joris Bontje.)
* Added support to RSA key objects for blinding and unblinding
data. (Contributed by Joris Bontje.)
