Cool!
I got hold of a 2.1 machine and recompiled the binary
this is what I am getting:
{hasty} ./client -m
rc5-56-client: Performance testing with 1000000 crypts
rc5-56-client: Complete in 2.614 seconds. (382627.93 keys/sec)
{hasty} ./client -m
rc5-56-client: Performance testing with 1000000 crypts
rc5-56-client: Complete in 2.566 seconds. (389699.01 keys/sec)
{hasty}
Now a client compiled on my 3.0 box:
{hasty} ./client -m
rc5-56-client: Performance testing with 1000000 crypts
rc5-56-client: Complete in 4.449 seconds. (224788.41 keys/sec)
It looks like we may have to look at the assembly output of the
program to sort out what the hell is going on .
