I made a drive using this setup:

Now, throughput on my rather weak Linux-running pentium 200MHz fell when
upgrading from plain v1-AES128. This is not surprising; however
multikey-v3 also eats more processing power, am I right?
multikey v2 and v3 eat more processing power than v1.
AES256 eats more processing power than AES128.
Is AES128 safe enough in your mind Jari; I see you use it in your
examples in the README.
I use AES128 myself.
So that's <safe>?
Downgrading would give me better performance I suppose.
Yep.
