      I recently ran the small test suite included with the ufc-crypt

   my 386/25 (no math coprocessor), this was:
      crypt: 312.7 crypts/sec
   ufccrypt: 281.9 crypt/sec

      I am wondering why this is the case? Under the Sun and RS6000,
   the UFC-crypt ran much faster. I'm using 0.98pl4, gcc2.2.2d on a
   386/25 with no math coprocessor. Thanks,

Well, for one thing, UFC-crypt is the native crypt under Linux.
Perhaps you were trying an older version when you grabbed your own to
compile?
