However, the total output size got bigger (in this example, before: 76100 bytes, after: 80470 bytes).

Is that a bug fix, or is something just really weird and fishy?

Looking at the actual content, it does seem to make more sense now, e.g., they key size 576 sounds more reasonable than 1435262658 (more than a gigabyte, very unlikely!).

Did I mess that up first? Indeed, checking out just before my other 4 commits, the outputs look much more similar again.

So I'm closing this; sorry for the fuzz. I'm definitely not a Python dev. :upside_down_face:

No worries :)
