Subject: Where do authors get these numbers?
Just saw this:
https://www.cryptolux.org/mediawiki-esc2015/images/3/32/Proceedings_esc2015.pdf#page=13
Looks like a ton of good effort by a lot of good people, but there's a
table claiming TwoCats generates only 1.26 bytes/cycle on a Haswell CPU
compared to some lame speed by their algorithm. Huh?
I just measured it on a similar CPU at 0.46 cycles/byte There are
trade-offs,, and speed isn't everything. It just happens to be fun :)
Sorry, but the authors here made a mistake.
I guess I can't get mad about other peoples mistakes.... that would be
seriously hypocritical.
