            Specifies a PEM-encoded PKCS#3 file to read the parameters
336
 
            needed by the TLS Diffie-Hellman key exchange from.  If
337
 
            this option is not given, or if the file for some reason
338
 
            could not be used, the parameters will be generated on
339
 
            startup, which will take some time and processing power.
340
 
            Those using servers running under time, power or processor

342

314
            TLS Diffie-Hellman key exchange.  Default is 1024.
