I've been running performance test using a single alpha. To do this, I've been using the parallel-signatures.py script that's in libhal. It works well with one or two clients for 1024 and 2048 bit RSA keys. However, it crashes whenever I try to use 3+ clients.
This includes the default 4 clients. Libhal is returning <span style="font-family: Calibri, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif; background-color: rgb(255, 255, 255); display: inline !important">HAL_ERROR_ASN1_PARSE_FAILED. The failure is being returned from RPC_FUNC_PKEY_SIGN.</span></div>
