Hi, I'm using dm-crypt on a EEE 1000 laptop. Without encryption I can write at roughly 65 MiB/s; if I enable dm-crypt with aes-cbc-essiv, write speed goes down to 16 Mib/s. I don't have industrial secrets on my laptop; I just know that sooner or later I will forget it in a café and I don't want the lucky one who will find it to also gain access to my emails. What cipher should I use for maximum performance? Is there anything else that I can tune to improve my disc speed when using dm-crypt? -- Yannick Gingras http://ygingras.net
