Let's say that there's a group of computers that maintain network connections
to each other, and they send information to each other encrypted with a
symmetric cipher whose key is agreed to with the Diffie-Hellman key exchange.
Every n days they pick a new group at random. How often should they change the
group for various sizes of the Diffie-Hellman group? I'd like to know both for
the multiplicative part of a prime field and for an elliptic curve.
