-Security and Compatibility
-------
-
-**TL;DR**: Use the default values 2048 and 65537 unless you have a really, really good reason to do otherwise.
-
-Various platforms *require* these values.
-
-Most security experts agree that 4096-bit is no more "secure" than 2048-bit -
-a fundamental vulnerability in the RSA algorithm which causes 2048 to be broken
-will most likely also cause 4096 to be broken
-(i.e. if someone can prove mathematically prove P=NP or a way to predict prime numbers).
-Also, many platforms
-only support 2048 bit keys due to the insecurity of 1024-bit keys (which are not 1/2 secure
-but rather 1/(2^1028) less secure) and the excess computational
-cost of 4096-bit keys (it's not a 2x increase, it's more like a 2^2048 increase).
-
-As to why 65537 is even optional as a prime exponent or why it matters... no idea,
-but it does matter.
