DESCRIPTION
This command is used to test the performance of cryptographic algorithms.
OPTIONS
- -engine id
-
specifying an engine (by its unique id string) will cause 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.
- [zero or more test algorithms]
-
If any options are given, speed tests those algorithms, otherwise all of
the above are tested.
