  2. There is AVX/AVX2 assembly for BLAKE2 at https://github.com/minio/blake2b-simd , benchmarked at a 1.8x-3.9x speedup.

  3. Oh, interesting. I was inferring that from the Go code out there that uses machine code directly: https://github.com/minio/blake2b-simd/blob/master/compressAv... I guess it must be a recent addition.

  4. Yes true. OpenSSL version gives a great boost. Rather than SHA512 we ended up using Blake2b - https://github.com/minio/blake2b-simd (also optimized with SIMD instructions) internally for bit-rot verification in…

  5. …bit-rot detection transparently which works along with erasure code using high speed BLAKE2 - https://github.com/minio/blake2b-simd hash based checksums.
