after rereading my earlier note I realized that I was not clear in
meaning how much harder is it to crack 4K+ keys as opposed to 1k keys. 
If the complexity of the problem has been cracked then it is only a
stop-gap.  Comming up with a new approach to the problem is what is
really needed.

feistal arrays? never heard of them....
