my point was that i do not see the connection between them.
what has the availability of ec todo with the rsa key size?
the only place where i see a connection is if you would want to "nudge"
users into not using rsa and for that you sabotage it beyond
any reason. but this would be pretty nasty thing todo no?

common, just quantify it. whats the actual timing differences?
like make a test program i can run on my raspberry pi...
do SOMETHING usefull that helps quantifying the impact.
