+ o Minor features (performance):
+ - Remove about 96% of the work from the function that we run at
+ startup to test our curve25519_basepoint implementation. Since
+ this function has yet to find an actual failure, we'll only
+ run it for 8 iterations instead of 200. Based on our profile
+ information, this change should save around 8% of our startup
+ time on typical desktops, and may have a similar effect on
+ other platforms. Closes ticket 28838.
