(The 68020 is 32(!) years old this year...)

That's a difference I can't understand. But are they really using the same
algorithms and otherwise running the same things in that comparison?

1) We're using OpenSSL's API so you'd have to check their implementation but
also 2) I'm sure OpenSSL adheres to the TLS' spec and isn't doing a lot of
unnecessary things.

Although the specific ciphers and algorithms used will make a great
difference.

If you can come up with a system for how that would work I'm sure we and more
people would be interested!
