Re: Crypt COM component very slow (General questions)

Michael,

I would say this is more/less normal. By definition, sign/verify process (or any operation with assymetric cryptography) is, by definition, VERY long and time consuming process.

But you shouldn't be doing that anyway. You should calculate MD5 or SHA1 digest (which you can be almost sure is unique) and sign that - that operation will be very fast.

From security aspect, you got almost the same level of security.

Of course, when you verify the signature, you must do the same - verify if signature of MD5/SHA1 hash is the same.

Hope I helped!
