I've just released two new curve25519 implementations: one in C and one in x86-64 assembly. The latter is 10% faster than djb's implementation.

curve25519 is an elliptic curve, developed by Dan Bernstein, for fast Diffie-Hellman key agreement. DJB's original implementation was written in a language of his own devising called qhasm. The original qhasm source isn't available, only the x86 32-bit assembly output.

Since many x86 systems are now 64-bit, and portability is important, this project provides alternative implementations for other platforms.

(All tests run on a 2.33GHz Intel Core2)
