It uses anywhere between a 64 bit and a 448 bit key. The transform itself is fast and operates on a 64 bit block, and most of the calculation time is in initialising the context with the key data. The _PP name comes from the fact that this implementation is Pure Perl, and will not have any compatibility problems. PR: ports/43794 Submitted by: Jim Geovedi END
