Bitcoin secp256k1 C library wrapped with CFFI to use with Python2 and PyPy2.
These results are achieved on an Intel Core i5-4200U CPU @ 1.6GHz:
cffi took: 0.75secs / 74μs per op / 13391 signs per sec
cffi took: 1.09secs / 109μs per op / 9170 recovers per sec
This library offers sign, recover and verify from the secp256k1 bitcoin lib used like this:
sig = ecdsa_sign_raw(msg32, seckey)
pubkey = ecdsa_recover_raw(msg32, sig)
ecdsa_verify_raw(msg32, sig, pubkey)
