OK, good to know.
Can you shift the signing to its own thread? Or make it asynchronous?
Tor has cpuworkers, which could be used to do signing work.
Some non-blockingness would be required, yes.
An asynchronous cryptographic tokens API would be useful but if we're unable to pull that off, having a cpuworker blocking on the call would be a solution.
