Package: openssl Version: 0.9.8k-3 Severity: minor
bernh...@be:/data/home/bernhard$ openssl speed sha1 Doing sha1 for 3s on 16 size blocks: 2922068 sha1's in 2.84s [...] The 'numbers' are in 1000s of bytes per second processed. type 16 bytes 64 bytes 256 bytes 1024 bytes 8192 bytes sha1 16035.45k 52527.68k 130759.17k 207166.84k 249277.10k Does the above mean 16035.45k*1000 or 16035.45*1000? Doing the math reveals the latter is the case: 2922068*16/2.84=16,462,354.93. I suggest writing something like "The suffixes used are metric (powers of 1000)." or "The k suffix below means 1000, not 1024." to avoid confusion.
