Hmm. I was definitely oversimplifying, but if I need AES-256-GCM, how do I choose between OpenSSL and LibTom? (If you have particular insight into the strength of LibTom's GCM table acceleration implementation, I'm quite curious.)
What multiplication factor on "very" careful do I need to be with OpenSSL? :)
edit: Maybe I should've posted this link[0], because tables vs CLMUL is a little more complicated than that.
