Among various computing devices I have there is one that stands out it is NVIDIA Quadro NVS 140M because it supports only FP32 (float) operations, but not FP64 (double). It is generally too old. In OpenCL we have both pow function which takes double and float parameters. The latter is called pown. I use first one to actually benchmark double precision computation.

OpenCL implementation od DES cipher is way faster than regular single-threaded C program. 1 mln encryptions take less than a second on RTX 3050 Ti, but also as much as almost 40 seconds on Intel i5-10200h single-thread application. Lack of compact and extremely portable SSL/TLS library in pre C++11 project made me think about going for something easy to implement on my own concerning data encryption. I’ve selected DES, which stands for Data Encryption Standard because of my general understanding of such algorithm. It comes from 1975 and has certain limitations including short key length or known weak keys. But
