Thanks for the link.
Improving the performance of coreutils' SHA* programs has been
discussed off and on for some time.  Notably, openssl's equivalents
outperform those in coreutils, but portability counts, too,
which means integrating an assembly-based solution takes time.
Severity set to 'wishlist' from 'normal' Request was from Assaf Gordon <assafgordon <at> gmail.com> to control <at> debbugs.gnu.org. (Fri, 19 Oct 2018 01:47:02 GMT) Full text and rfc822 format available.
