Stretching Perry's limits...
In defense of Tom's point of view, code size does
matter in an embedded platform.  Methinks there's
a certain bias towards thinking that crypto only
runs on (massive) servers.  Sometimes you want a 
closed little box to run RSA ops, you want to use software,
and you can tolerate a slow rate number of transactions/sec.
