The global CSPRNG is denoted by -the I<rand> algorithm name. - -=head1 OPTIONS - -=over 4 - -=item B<-help> - -Print out a usage message. - -=item B<-engine id> - -Specifying an engine (by its unique B<id> string) will cause B<speed> -to attempt to obtain a functional reference to the specified engine, -thus initialising it if needed. The engine will then be set as the default -for all available algorithms. - -=item B<-elapsed> - -When calculating operations- or bytes-per-second, use wall-clock time -instead of CPU user time as divisor. It can be useful when testing speed -of hardware engines. - -=item B<-evp algo> - -Use the specified cipher or message digest algorithm via the EVP interface. -If B<algo> is an AEAD cipher, then you can pass <-aead> to benchmark a -TLS-like sequence. And if B<algo> is a multi-buffer capable cipher, e.g. -aes-128-cbc-hmac-sha1, then B<-mb> will time multi-buffer operation. - -=item B<-decrypt> - -Time the decryption instead of encryption. Affects only the EVP testing. - -=item B<-rand file...> - -A file or files containing random data used to seed the random number -generator. -Multiple files can be specified separated by an OS-dependent character. -The separator is B<;> for MS-Windows, B<,> for OpenVMS, and B<:> for -all others. - -=item [B<-writerand file>] - -Writes random data to the specified I<file> upon exit. -This can be used with a subsequent B<-rand> flag. - -=item B<-primes num> - -Generate a B<num>-prime RSA key and use it to run the benchmarks. This option -is only effective if RSA algorithm is specified to test. - -=item B<-seconds num> - -Run benchmarks for B<num> seconds. - -=item B<-bytes num> - -Run benchmarks on B<num>-byte buffers. Affects ciphers, digests and the CSPRNG. - -=item B<[zero or more test algorithms]> - -If any options are given, B<speed> tests those algorithms, otherwise a -pre-compiled grand selection is tested. - -=back - -=head1 COPYRIGHT - -Copyright 2000-2018 The OpenSSL Project Authors.
