Measurements on the PKCS #11 Support Program are listed based on the use of a single Coprocessor. (Multiple Coprocessors are supported for greater throughput.)

Note: The DES and SHA-1 rates are strongly impacted by the data block size. For example, see the CCA encryption rate.
Using a 1024-bit RSA key and a single-thread test program, a single Coprocessor performed:
