I apologize.  I misread the code!  Sorry about that.  Between thinking that
everthing was written in python and noticing how slowly the crypto ran on
my machine I jumped to the conclusion that the underlying crypto is slow.
In the end it just seems that mojonation does a whole lot of work.  (And
some of your algorithms are slow, e.g., your random pool)

Sorry,
Andrew
