[Hardware] The market of ASICs (One GigaKey / Second?)

Every stage has a different key, thus a different expanded keytable (832 
bits). Since we have about 600 stages (449200 bits, or 62KiB), it sounds to 
me we're going to need a lot of internal registers. Even that much that I 
started looking at external memory (not the entire keytable is needed every 
stage). And ASICs.

Hope that answers your question. - wacco
