Since most of the netbooks are mainly bottlenecked by a slow 5400 rpm harddisk, it simply doesn't matter if you run multihtreaded dmcrypt on them. It can easily keep up with the harddisks speed, as long as you choose one of the faster algorithms (aes, twofish). The problem changes when fast SSDs will become significantly cheaper and most of the laptops being sould will have one. --------------------------------------------------------------------- dm-crypt mailing list - http://www.saout.de/misc/dm-crypt/ To unsubscribe, e-mail: dm-crypt-unsubscribe@xxxxxxxx For additional commands, e-mail: dm-crypt-help@xxxxxxxx
