Not now. There was a recent discussion among comments that it actually doesn't bring any significant improvement. Yet.

What version of the images have Security System patches? I saw http://www.lemaker.org/thread-8867-1-1.html

 

Are there any benchmark results with or without security system patches?

In added this long time ago to kernel 3.4 ... which is not supported anymore by the author. We should try this with kernel 4.x ... i haven't done the tests - I read somewhere that we don't gain much. Can't remember where :(

The patches have been accepted into mainline for 4.3. See the Status section of http://sunxi.montjoie.ovh/

 

Although I haven't done any benchmarking myself, I would be surprised if the patches didn't add a boost to security functions. I believe you have to patch openSSL to use the changes or you won't notice much of a boost.

Right, OpenSSL needs to be able to use hardware cryptographic accelerator, it seems either via AF_ALG or cryptodev. A80/A83 or H3 SoC can be interesting since they support RSA
