Can't help out with that. But I think that the ECRYPY Yearly Reports on
keylengths and algorithms are a great source for these kinds of
questions. The latest (from 2012) can be found here:

http://www.ecrypt.eu.org/documents/D.SPA.20.pdf

Unfortunately ECRYPY II has come to an end and I'm not certain the
report will be updated anymore. Would be a loss since having updated
estimates on keys and what algorithms to use is really helpful (IMHO).
