Nettle

It is comparing between machines that is difficult. Typically you would like to have a good baseline benchmark to normalize the rest with, like the dB scale for signal strength. hash-speed/memxor-speed or so.

I think it's adequate for the things I've used the benchmarks for:

1. Comparing hash performance between machines.

2. Comparing two implementations of the same hash function, both

running on the same machine.

3. Comparing two different hash functions, both running on the same

machine.

How do you use benchmark figures?
