Hello, I've compiled OpenSSL 1.0.2a on Mac OS X 10.6.8, and used `openssl speed` to compare performances with stock OpenSSL (0.9.8). In many tests, 1.0.2a is a bit faster, or as fast as 0.9.8y, but on the 6 AES tests, the old one is almost twice as fast as the new one: OpenSSL 1.0.2a 19 Mar 2015 built on: reproducible build, date unspecified options:bn(64,32) rc4(8x,mmx) des(idx,cisc,16,long) aes(partial) idea(int) blowfish(ptr) compiler: cc -I. -I.. -I../include -fPIC -fno-common -DOPENSSL_PIC -DZLIB -DOPENSSL_THREADS -D_REENTRANT -DDSO_DLFCN -DHAVE_DLFCN_H -arch i386 -O3 -fomit-frame-pointer -DL_ENDIAN -DOPENSSL_BN_ASM_PART_WORDS -DOPENSSL_IA32_SSE2 -DOPENSSL_BN_ASM_MONT -DOPENSSL_BN_ASM_GF2m -DSHA1_ASM -DSHA256_ASM -DSHA512_ASM -DMD5_ASM -DRMD160_ASM -DAES_ASM -DVPAES_ASM -DWHIRLPOOL_ASM -DGHASH_ASM ../.. aes-128 cbc 93494.07k 102637.16k 104677.80k 105762.76k 106145.31k aes-192 cbc 78912.98k 84939.17k 86991.87k 88263.00k 88350.72k aes-256 cbc 68691.56k 73564.65k 74554.37k 75421.01k 75803.31k ../.. aes-128 ige 89849.59k 94381.10k 97713.32k 98399.23k 97045.16k aes-192 ige 76133.38k 80632.62k 81332.31k 82033.66k 81988.27k aes-256 ige 66744.15k 69558.66k 70501.12k 70079.15k 70041.60k ../..
