Hi, also, Jari released aespipe version 2.4b (I somehow didn't get an announce mail so I just quote from aespipe's official ChangeLog): aespipe-v2.4b June 3 2010 - Added DESTDIR make variable for "make install DESTDIR=/tmp/root", and support for separate build directory (mkdir xx; cd xx; ../configure). Patch from Alon Bar-Lev. - Added faster (single thread) parallelized version of MD5 for amd64. - Added support for VIA padlock hardware AES. - Added support for Intel hardware AES. - Added x86/amd64/padlock/intelaes auto-detections to ./configure script, and these options to override its guesses: --disable-asm --enable-asm=x86 --enable-asm=amd64 --enable-padlock --disable-padlock --enable-intelaes --disable-intelaes So far I only tested it on x86_64 and there's indeed both a speed-bump and less overall CPU load (CPU load spikes are a bit higher than with aespipe-v2.3e but I guess that's to be expected). Last but not least: This month it has been 3 years since the loop-AES FAQ collection went public. It has been updated to reflect the most recent loop-AES version, new patches have been added. I hope it's interesting for Slackware users to know that by now aespipe and dietlibc made it to slackbuilds.org. Pre-compiled and signed packages are available for Slackware 13.1 in my public Slackware builds repository. Enjoy. -- left blank, right bald loop-AES FAQ: http://mareichelt.de/pub/texts.loop-aes.php#faq
