Use DSCP for IP QoS traffic classes The previous TOS values are deprecated and not used by modern traffic classifiers. This sets AF21 for "interactive" traffic (with a tty). Non-tty traffic sets AF11 - that indicates high throughput but is not lowest priority (which would be CS1 or LE). This differs from the CS1 used by OpenSSH, it lets interactive git over SSH have higher priority than background least effort traffic. Dropbear's settings here should be suitable with the diffservs used by CAKE qdisc.

10 You can disable whole classes of algorithms on the command line with the LTC_NO_* defines. From there you can manually turn on what you want to enable.

18 Obviously this won't get you performance but if you need to pack a crypto lib in a device with limited means it's more than enough...
