So do different versions of openssl. 0.9.8k was much slower then
0.9.8i. But openssl-1.0.0beta was faster again for me. As for
dnssec-signzone, the 9.6.1 version seemed much faster for me then
previous versions, ldns-signzone was extremely slow, but I guess that's
why they're working on hsm-signer :)

(all meassures with unsigned zones as input)
