[issue39979] Cannot tune scrypt with large enough parameters

[Gle]

Gle <glen at lambda.casa> added the comment:

Alright, I understand the difference in behaviour now. Thanks a lot for the clear explanation !

Would be nice to have something like:
"""maxmem must be greater than (n * 2 * r * 64) plus a bit of internal
   memory for OpenSSL book keeping.
   Basically, set maxmem = (n * 2 * r * 65)
"""
in the documentation.

Thanks again, and sorry to have bothered you with this non-bug.
Have a happy day !
