another suggestion: you could try openssl 0.9.9 (devel) with the
montgomery multiplier acceleration to speed up some of the rsa/dsa
ops:

openssl engine padlock
(padlock) VIA PadLock: RNG (not used) ACE2 PHE(8192) PMM

PHE is the sha1 padlock hash engine
PMM is the MONTMULT accel

.. any further discussion down this tangent should probably be taken
off list for brevity.  let me know directly if you're still having
trouble with the hardware throughput.
