openssl speed

Benchmark OpenSSL algorithms. More information: https://docs.openssl.org/master/man1/openssl-speed/.

• Benchmark all available algorithms:

openssl speed

• Benchmark the most common algorithms:

openssl speed {{md5 sha1 sha256 aes rsa}}

• Benchmark a specific EVP cipher:

openssl speed -evp {{aes-256-cbc}}

• Benchmark algorithms for a specific duration (in seconds):

openssl speed -seconds {{10}}

• Benchmark using wall-clock time instead of CPU user time:

openssl speed -elapsed

• Output in machine readable format:

openssl speed -mr

• Benchmark multiple algorithms in parallel using all available CPU cores:

openssl speed -multi $(nproc)
