[I<algorithm> ...]
=head1 DESCRIPTION
This command is used to test the performance of cryptographic algorithms.
=head1 OPTIONS
=over 4
=item B<-help>
Print out a usage message.
=item B<-config> I<filename>
Specifies the configuration file to use.
Optional; for a description of the default value,
see L<openssl(1)/COMMAND SUMMARY>.
=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> I<algo>
Use the specified cipher or message digest algorithm via the EVP interface.
If I<algo> is an AEAD cipher, then you can pass B<-aead> to benchmark a
TLS-like sequence. And if I<algo> is a multi-buffer capable cipher, e.g.
aes-128-cbc-hmac-sha1, then B<-mb> will time multi-buffer operation.
To see the algorithms supported with this option, use
C<openssl list -digest-algorithms> or C<openssl list -cipher-algorithms>
command.
=item B<-multi> I<num>
Run multiple operations in parallel.
=item B<-async_jobs> I<num>
Enable async mode and start specified number of jobs.
=item B<-misalign> I<num>
Misalign the buffers by the specified number of bytes.
=item B<-hmac> I<digest>
Time the HMAC algorithm using the specified message digest.
=item B<-cmac> I<cipher>
Time the CMAC algorithm using the specified cipher e.g.
C<openssl speed -cmac aes128>.
=item B<-decrypt>
Time the decryption instead of encryption. Affects only the EVP testing.
=item B<-mb>
Enable multi-block mode on EVP-named cipher.
=item B<-aead>
Benchmark EVP-named AEAD cipher in TLS-like sequence.
=item B<-kem-algorithms>
Benchmark KEM algorithms: key generation, encapsulation, decapsulation.
=item B<-signature-algorithms>
Benchmark signature algorithms: key generation, signature, verification.
=item B<-primes> I<num>
Generate a I<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> I<num>
Run benchmarks for I<num> seconds.
=item B<-bytes> I<num>
Run benchmarks on I<num>-byte buffers. Affects ciphers, digests and the CSPRNG.
The limit on the size of the buffer is INT_MAX - 64 bytes, which for a 32-bit
int would be 2147483583 bytes.
=item B<-mr>
Produce the summary in a mechanical, machine-readable, format.
=item B<-mlock>
Lock memory into RAM for more deterministic measurements.
{- $OpenSSL::safe::opt_r_item -}
{- $OpenSSL::safe::opt_engine_item -}
{- $OpenSSL::safe::opt_provider_item -}
=item I<algorithm> ...
If any I<algorithm> is given, then those algorithms are tested, otherwise a
pre-compiled grand selection is tested.
=back
=head1 BUGS
The I<algorithm> can be selected only from a pre-compiled subset of things
that the C<openssl speed> command knows about. To test any additional digest
or cipher algorithm supported by OpenSSL use the C<-evp> option.
There is no way to test the speed of any additional public key algorithms
supported by third party providers with the C<openssl speed> command.
=head1 HISTORY
The B<-engine> option was deprecated in OpenSSL 3.0.
DSA512 was removed in OpenSSL 3.2.
