60k/second across 24 cores, admittedly on very fast hardware (though not using all the cores that hardware has). Pretty much the same number on 16 cores.

In general, telling someone they're "way off" about performance and citing 6 year old benchmarks isn't a winning plan.

In any case, it's immaterial to what we're discussing. My slow laptop could verify all the signatures for a busy day of updates in a couple seconds, and it's clearly -possible- to put a big fraction of this horsepower in a router.

Thanks for the reference, new benchmark looks nice.

Apologize for the 'way off', its reach-able.

And agree its immaterial to signature checks, but since it was brought up...

Either way, there is probably something holding routers back from reaching that, would be fun to speculate.
