Given that the OpenSSL assembly code is absolutely not optimized for the K10 architecture (yet) and that it is exclusively using the ALU unit which is the one that changed the less between K8 & K10 (compared to, say, the FPU and SSE units), I think that 5%-18% of perf improvements across the range of algorithms is pretty good (I'll edit my post with updated percentage numbers later now that I know the clock was 1950 MHz).

Doing 64-bit OpenSSL speed tests is very easy. Just follow my link to download the Ubuntu 7.10 64-bit DVD image. Burn it. Install it. Then in a terminal: "sudo apt-get install openssl", type in your user passwd, then "openssl speed".
