By far the fastest code around for the IBM PC may not be on the market tho. It was written by Amos Fiat at the Weizmann Institute in Israel. The package is called "CryptoCom", and it can perform a 160-decimal-digit decryption in less than 10 seconds. That is several times faster than the next fastest that I know of.
