The module learning with errors (MLWE) problem is one of the most promising candidates for constructing quantum-resistant cryptosystems. In this work, we propose an open-source framework to automatically adjust the level of parallelism for MLWE-based key exchange protocols to maximize the protocol execution efficiency. We observed that the number of key exchanges handled by primitive functions in parallel, and the dimension of the grids in the GPUs have significant impacts on both the latencies and throughputs of MLWE key exchange protocols. By properly adjusting the related parameters, in the experiments, we show that performance of MLWE based key exchange protocols can be improved across GPU platforms.
