Try to avoid using keys larger then 1024 bytes. Large keys

Is this still a valid recommendation? Based on which size of CPU/system?
Hi Olle,
i'd think that today we should suggest a larger key. I've found this page:
http://www.keylength.com/en/compare/
according to it newer sources suggest a value of at least 1536 bits for
asymmetric keys.
