Hi Moritz,
i know that link and thats what i have done to setup intel aesni acceleration - but it seems that this tweak is not available anymore on ubuntu 13.10 thats what i've meant.
i found also some hints in google that this is no longer working now.
this is in my startup log:
Mar 04 11:54:24.000 [warn] Unable to load dynamic OpenSSL engine "aesni".
Mar 04 11:54:24.000 [notice] Default OpenSSL engine for RSA is RSAX engine support [rsax]
Mar 04 11:54:24.000 [warn] TLS error while generating certificate: could not load the shared library (in DSO support routines:DLFCN_LOAD:---)
Mar 04 11:54:24.000 [warn] TLS error while generating certificate: could not load the shared library (in DSO support routines:DSO_load:---)
Mar 04 11:54:24.000 [warn] TLS error while generating certificate: dso not found (in engine routines:DYNAMIC_LOAD:---)
Mar 04 11:54:24.000 [warn] TLS error while generating certificate: no such engine (in engine routines:ENGINE_by_id:---)
but as you can see aesni_intel is activated:
lsmod | grep aes
aesni_intel 55624 0
aes_x86_64 17131 1 aesni_intel
lrw 13286 1 aesni_intel
glue_helper 13990 1 aesni_intel
ablk_helper 13597 1 aesni_intel
cryptd 20359 3 ghash_clmulni_intel,aesni_intel,ablk_helper
i found some information on 2 pages that aesni_intel is no longer available to openssl 1.0.1 so this accelleration is not usable anymore - as ubuntu 13.10 is delivered with that openssl version im also affected of that change.
