Subject: Fused doublings in EdDSA double scalarmult
X-Git-Url: https://git.codecow.com/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=b6cb554e1af8ffc90bc4e190604bfff3ffa0a56a;p=Monocypher.git

Fused doublings in EdDSA double scalarmult

Fusing the two scalar multiplication together halves the number of
required doublings.  The code is just as simple, speeds up signature
verification quite a bit.
