FYI, 2048-bit RSA only has a 112-bit security level, despite its GIANT KEYS. Elliptic curves can give you 128-bit security with 256-bit keys

@bascule Colin uses RSA-2048 for Tarsnap. It’s a sensible option. -
@tqbf I don't see why people still use RSA instead of EC these days -
@bascule Conservativism, and some RSA impls are faster than ECC in 64 bit hardware? -
@tqbf faster than ECC? which algorithm specifically? I find that hard to believe ;)
