In the 0.9.8 openssl change log you can read:
Added an ENGINE that implements RSA by performing private key
exponentiations with the GMP library. The conversions to and from
GMP's mpz_t format aren't optimised nor are any montgomery forms
cached, and on x86 it appears OpenSSL's own performance has caught
up.
However there are likely to be other architectures where GMP could
provide a boost. This ENGINE is not built in by default, but it can
be
specified at Configure time and should be accompanied by the necessary
linker additions, eg;
./config -DOPENSSL_USE_GMP -lgmp

Unfortunately build of openssl with VC-WIN32 batch file together with --enable
GMP option for Perl Configure does not work fine.
