JEP 246: Leverage CPU Instructions for GHASH and RSASummary Improve the performance of GHASH and RSA cryptographic operations by leveraging recently-introduced SPARC and Intel x64 CPU instructions. Success Metrics The support for AES-CBC included in JDK 8 (see JEP 164) shows about an 8x improvement over the pure software-based implementation. Different algorithms will vary, but we should see similar significant performance gains. Motivation The les
