I suggest comment out `#define DROPBEAR_SMALL_CODE` in options.h before compilation,
the default is set to on.

Here is the documentation for that option:
/* Set this if you want to use the DROPBEAR_SMALL_CODE option. This can save
several kB in binary size however will make the symmetrical ciphers and hashes
slower, perhaps by 50%. Recommended for small systems that aren't doing
much traffic. */


The reason is obvious, faster code for just a few kbytes binary increase
We are on x86 (or x64) where disk size is not a problem.
This task depends upon
