The order (I think) is:
clear_keys()
set_key(0)(1)(2)....
set_satl()
crypt_all()
cmp_all()
set_salt()
crypt_all()
cmp_all()
set_salt()
crypt_all()
cmp_all()
.....
clear_keys()
set_key(0)(1)....
I think that is proper order. It could be a set_salt prior to list of set keys, but I think not.
However, benching and testing may not observe proper order. I know there was no clear_keys in test loop before I made a change, and I am not sure it is there. I am not at a computer I can check on this, at this time, but I will look into it when I get a chance.
Jim.
