In any case, it's a lot slower than the C version. It's even more slower than the *amazingly* good G4/Altivec version, which just screams on my Powerbook (exactly the same as the published benchmark, FWIW)... I guess a G5 is even better.


seems like a good next step would be to create a python to compiled library implementation. I'm still using the hashcash via commands route in Camram. see class hashcash in
http://harvee.org/stamper/camram_core/modules/camram_utils.py

this is some of the oldest code in Camram dating back to what I was learning python. I definitely need to change things to accommodate new features within hashcash.
