See http://www.esat.kuleuven.ac.be/~bosselae/fast.html for fast
implementations on the Pentium (SHA-1: 837 cycles per block or 55.1
Mbit/sec on a 90 MHz Pentium)

Or libsha from ftp://ftp.psy.uq.oz.au/pub/Crypto/libeay/ - this one isalso
available as a source code and has also a Pentium Pro optimized version.
