I call "openssl" executable from Racket for most crypto algorithms.<br>
<br>
"openssl" is used widely, it's fast, and I can keep the native code in
separate host processes (for security/reliability, and for removing
some load from a Racket host process).<br>
<br>
I'm sure the protocols could be implemented in pure Racket code, and
using Racket's new-ish numerical optimizations features, but then I'd
have to audit.<br>
