Struct TimeParams 

pub struct TimeParams {
    pub iterations: u64,
}

Parameters for time-lock encryption.

The iterations parameter determines how many sequential hash operations must be performed to decrypt the content. Each iteration takes approximately a constant time, so this provides a time delay that cannot be parallelized.

Fields

iterations: u64

Number of sequential hash iterations required

Implementations

impl TimeParams

pub fn new(iterations: u64) -> Self

Create new time parameters with specified number of iterations.

Example computation times (approximate)

• 100,000 iterations: ~10ms on modern CPU
• 1,000,000 iterations: ~100ms
• 10,000,000 iterations: ~1 second
• 100,000,000 iterations: ~10 seconds

pub fn from_duration_ms(duration_ms: u64) -> Self

Create time parameters for approximately the given duration.

This is an estimate based on ~10,000 iterations per millisecond on a typical modern CPU. Actual time will vary by hardware.

pub fn estimated_delay_ms(&self) -> u64

Estimate the time delay in milliseconds.

This is an approximation assuming ~10,000 iterations per millisecond.
