AES, or Advanced Encryption Standard, is actually the RIJNDAEL algorithm. This is the algorithm that replaced DES.

ARCFOUR_128 is a compatible
algorithm with RSA's RC4 algorithm, which is considered to be a trade

MAC stands for Message Authentication Code. It can be described as a keyed hash algorithm. See RFC2104.

It really depends on the group used. Primes with lesser bits are always faster, but also easier to break. Values less than 768 should not be used today
