OpenSSL

OpenSSL is an open-source toolkit that implements SSL (Secure Sockets Layer) and TLS (Transport Layer Security) protocols. The system/openssl test profiles relies on benchmarking the system/OS-supplied openssl binary rather than the pts/openssl test profile that uses the locally-built OpenSSL for benchmarking. This test will also attempt to utilize the QATengine plug-in on platforms where supported/available.


OpenSSL

Algorithm: AES-256-GCM

OpenBenchmarking.org metrics for this test profile configuration based on 281 public results since 21 November 2023 with the latest data as of 20 December 2024.

Below is an overview of the generalized performance for components where there is sufficient statistically significant data based upon user-uploaded results. It is important to keep in mind particularly in the Linux/open-source space there can be vastly different OS configurations, with this overview intended to offer just general guidance as to the performance expectations.
