I am verifying a signature generated using ecdsa secp256r1. The signature is getting verified but the time taken by the verification step is too long. It takes 4-5 seconds to verify the signature. The implementation is bare metal i.e. no RTOS (one realizes the use of RTOS but still the time is too long). Can you please guide a way around for this issue. How to make it work faster , the ideal verification time would be 30ms - 60ms. Here is a gist of my code

mbedtls_ecp_curve_info *curve_info = NULL; mbedtls_ecdsa_context ecdsa_context;

/// Initialization mbedtls_ecdsa_init(&ecdsa_context); curve_info = mbedtls_ecp_curve_info_from_tls_id(23); /// 23 is tls_id of secp256r1 mbedtls_ecp_group_load(&ecdsa_context.grp, curve_info->grp_id);

/// Processing result = mbedtls_ecp_point_read_binary( &ecdsa_context.grp, &ecdsa_context.Q, public_key_data, // public key data in uncompressed format i.e. including leading 0x04 sizeof(public_key_data) ); /// 32 /// 71 status_verify_signature = mbedtls_ecdsa_read_signature(&ecdsa_context, hash, sizeof(hash), signature, sizeof(sig)); /// converts the signature data to ASN1, verifies the signature

Thank you :)
