The SHA hashes are slightly faster than Windows and twice as fast as TomCrypt. RSA sign/verify is 4 times slower than Windows and ECC sign/verify is 10 times slower than Windows. Both are also slower than TomCrypt. So there seems to be room for optimizing the asymmetric algorithms. Performance isn't as important here as it is for ciphers and hashes of course. -- https://gitlab.winehq.org/wine/wine/-/merge_requests/11025#note_141734
