First place of what? :-) We (the deschall group) are doing > 500Mkeys/sec. Plus, we'll soon be able to traverse firewalls, which we hope will significantly increase the number of available clients. Our status reports are available at http://www.frii.com/~rcv/desstat.htm Stop playing around with <10Mkeys/sec and join us. :-) That's a lot of keys, but if everyone can coordinate their efforts together, the faster we'll get through the keyspace and prove that DES is too weak for real applications... -- Matt Curtin Chief Scientist Megasoft, Inc. cmcurtin@research.megasoft.com http://www.research.megasoft.com/people/cmcurtin/ I speak only for myself Death to small keys.
